Methylmorpholine is a colorless liquid with an ammonia-like odor. It is a cyclic tertiary amine. It is used as a base catalyst for polyurethane formation and other reactions. From the reaction of methylamine and diethylene glycol, N-formylmorpholine hydrogenolysis derived. It is the precursor of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide, a commercially important oxidizing agent.
