N-Methylpiperazine is a heterocyclic organic compound. It is stable under normal temperatures and pressures. [2]
N-Methylpiperazine is a common building block used in organic synthesis.[3] For example, N-methylpiperazine is used in the manufacture of various pharmaceutical drugs including cyclizine,[4] meclizine, and sildenafil.
The lithium salt, lithium N-methylpiperazide, is used as a reagent in organic synthesis for protection of aryl aldehydes.[5]
Industrially, N-methylpiperazine is produced by reacting diethanolamine and methylamine at 250 bar and 200 °C.[6][7]
