Comprehensive physical and chemical properties of Tetramethylguanidine (TMG) and its broad prospects for application in many fields

Physical properties Value Appearance Colorless liquid Melting point -17.5°C Boiling point 225°C Density 0.97 g/cm³（20°C） Refractive index 1.486 (20°C) Solubility Easily soluble in water, alcohol, ether and other polar solvents, slightly soluble in non-polar solvents 3. Chemical properties Basicity: TMG is a strong base, which is stronger than commonly used organic bases such as triethylamine and DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0] One carbon-7-ene). Nucleophilicity: TMG has strong nucleophilicity and…
