Product Introduction
Pyrrolidine (CAS 123-75-1), also known as Tetrahydropyrrole or Azolidine, is a cyclic secondary amine with the chemical formula C4H9N. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic ammonia-like, penetrating odor. As a saturated four-carbon heterocycle, Pyrrolidine (CAS 123-75-1) is highly reactive and serves as a fundamental building block in organic synthesis. It is miscible with water and most organic solvents. Its unique structure makes it an essential precursor for a wide array of bioactive molecules, including amino acids, drugs, and specialty industrial chemicals.

Applications
Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis Used as a critical building block for the synthesis of “racetam” class drugs, antibiotics, and various antihypertensive medications.
Agrochemical Manufacturing Acts as a key intermediate in the production of high-efficiency fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides.
Rubber Vulcanization Accelerators Functions as a precursor for the synthesis of specialty accelerators that improve the speed and quality of the rubber curing process.
Epoxy Resin Curing Agents Utilized in the formulation of modified amine hardeners to enhance the chemical resistance and mechanical strength of epoxy coatings.
Chemical Catalyst and Solvent Serves as a catalyst in various organic transformations and as a specialty solvent in high-tech industrial processes.
Packaging
Standard industrial packaging options for Pyrrolidine include:
-
170kg tight-head steel drums (Standard export packaging).
-
850kg IBC tanks for high-volume automated production lines.
-
ISO Tanks for large-scale international bulk maritime shipments.
-
All packaging is hermetically sealed under a nitrogen blanket to prevent oxidation and moisture absorption.
Storage
Pyrrolidine is a flammable and corrosive liquid. It must be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Store in a dedicated flammable liquids cabinet with secondary containment. Keep containers tightly sealed and protected from light. Store away from strong oxidizing agents, acids, and acid anhydrides. Properly stored, it has a shelf life of at least 12 months.
