4-Formylmorpholine

N-formylmorpholine (NFM) is an important organic solvent and fine chemical raw material. It is a colorless and transparent liquid at room temperature. It has the chemical properties of amide, and its aqueous solution is easily hydrolyzed into morpholine and formic acid in the presence of acid or base. The aqueous solution is weakly alkaline.
N-formylmorpholine is an excellent extraction solvent for producing aromatic hydrocarbons and has a wide range of applications in fields such as synthetic fibers.
