Ethylenediamine is a strongly basic amine useful as a building block in chemical synthesis. It is used as a solvent to dissolve proteins such as albumins, casein and in medicine to stabilize aminophylline when used in injections. Ethylenediamine is used in manufacture of chelating agents (EDTA), epoxy curing agents, dimethylolethylene-urea resins, emulsifying agents, textile lubricants, antifreeze inhibitor. It is also involved in the manufacture of many industrial chemicals and forms derivatives with carboxylic acids, nitriles, alcohols, alkylating agents, carbon disulfide, aldehydes and ketones. It is a basic building block to prepare heterocyclic compound such as imidazolidines.
