Application


  • Cobalt Metal–Organic Framework Microcrystalline Particles: This study presents the use of butylamine in the synthesis of cobalt-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which exhibit strong electrocatalytic activities and controlled morphologies (RK Kamlekar, M Pannipara, AG Al-Sehemi, 2024).

  • Fast Carbon Dioxide–Epoxide Cycloaddition Catalyzed by Ionic Liquids: The research explores the catalytic role of ionic liquids in reactions between carbon dioxide and epoxides, with butylamine enhancing the reaction rates for producing non-isocyanate polyurethanes (M Rebei, C Červinka, A Mahun, P Ecorchard, 2024).
