Application

Dioctylamine can be used as a reactant in the synthesis of:
  • Ionic liquids based on the tetra-alkyl-dimethylguanidinium cation
  • N-(2,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)perylene-3,4-dicarboximide based perylene photosensitizers.

It can be also employed as a surfactant in the shape-controlled synthesis of some nanoparticles.
