LAURIC ACID MONOETHANOLAMIDE Usage And Synthesis

Definition	ChEBI: An N-(long-chain-acyl)ethanolamine resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of dodecanoic acid (myristic acid) with the amino group of ethanolamine.
General Description	Cream-colored flakes.
Air & Water Reactions	Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile	LAURIC ACID MONOETHANOLAMIDE is a very weak base. Reacts with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed with strong reducing agents. Reacts with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2. Combustion generates mixed oxides of nitrogen.
Fire Hazard	Flash point data for LAURIC ACID MONOETHANOLAMIDE are not available, but LAURIC ACID MONOETHANOLAMIDE is probably combustible.
