Application

N,N-Dimethylethylamine (DMEA) is generally used to prepare water-soluble quaternary ammonium salts.[1] It facilitates lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) mediated enolization of highly substituted aryl ketones.[2][3] Additionally, DMEA is also used as an organic solvent in synthetic chemistry.[4][5]
