Applications:
EDA (Ethylene Diamine) is used in large quantities for production of many industrial chemicals.
EDA (Ethylene Diamine) forms derivatives with carboxylic acids (including fatty acids), nitriles, alcohols (at elevated temperatures), alkylating agents, carbon disulfide, and aldehydes and ketones.
Because of EDA (Ethylene Diamine)'s bifunctional nature, having two amines, it readily forms heterocycles such as imidazolidines.
Precursor to chelation agents, drugs, and agrochemicals:
A most prominent derivative of EDA (Ethylene Diamine) is the chelating agent EDTA, which is derived from ethylenediamine via a Strecker synthesis involving cyanide and formaldehyde.
Hydroxyethylethylenediamine is another commercially significant chelating agent.
Numerous bio-active compounds and drugs contain the N-CH2-CH2-N linkage, including some antihistamines.
Salts of ethylenebisdithiocarbamate are commercially significant fungicides under the brand names Maneb, Mancozeb, Zineb, and Metiram.
