     Information  @ a Glance 

• Triethylamine is the chemical compound with the formula N(CH2CH3)3, commonly abbreviated Et3N.
•  It is a commonly encountered in organic synthesis probably because it is the simplest symmetrically trisubstituted amine, i.e. a tertiary amine.
• Triethylamine is commonly employed in organic synthesis as a base, most often in the preparation of esters and amides from acyl chlorides.
• Such reactions lead to the production of hydrogen chloride which combines with triethylamine to form the salt triethylamine hydrochloride, commonly called triethylammonium chloride.
• Nitrogen compounds such as triethylamine are odorants generally found in chemical plants and foundries in which cold-box cores are made.
• Either triethylamine or diethylenetriamine can be conveniently used as a dynamic modifier to suppress the adsorption of basic proteins in capillary zone electrophoresis.
