  METHYLAMINE - (Organic Method #40)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
This is the amount of methylamine spiked on the sampling device which allows recovery of an amount of methylamine equivalent to the detection limit of the analytical procedure.
Methylamine is analyzed as a derivative which is specific, stable, and easier to quantitate than the free amine.
Six methylamine samples were prepared with the vapor generator by sampling an air stream containing 10.9 ppm methylamine for 50 min at approximately 0.2 L/min.

 NTP: Executive Summary Methylamine
Methylamines are produced by the interaction of methanol and ammonia over a catalyst (zinc chloride) at high temperature.
Methylamine has also been detected in milk (7.9 mol/100 g), cheese pizza (2.9mol/100 g), green beans (4.9mol/100 g), commercial samples of wine (0.19µg/mL in red wine, 0.14µg/mL in white wine), uncured and cured pork (1,490µg/kg and 730µg/kg, respectively), and at high levels in squid, octopus, and other seafoods (up to a mean of 255 ppm).
Methylamine was deferred April 9, 1987 for environmental effects because releases of the chemical from manufacturing and processing do not appear to contribute significantly to the level of the chemical in the environment, where the amines are rapidly degraded.

 Methylamine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Methylamine is a simple primary amine with a formula of CH Commercially, it is usually sold as a hydrochloride salt (powder), in alcoholic solutions, or as a pure chemical in pressurized metal containers.
The fact that it is not sterically hindered due to its small size, and the relatively low electrophilicity compared to oxygen and fluorine make it particularly useful in electrophilic substitution.
Methylamine is prepared commercially by the reaction of ammonia with chloromethane.

 NTP: Executive Summary Methylamine
Methylamine has not been evaluated for skin absorption potential; however, it has been shown to be irritating to the skin of guinea pigs and the eyes of rabbits, and may be irritating to the gastrointestinal tract of guinea pigs following oral administration (Goffman and McGuire, 1980; ACGIH, 1993).
Methylamine induced mutagenic responses at the tk locus in the mouse lymphoma cell forward mutation assay in the absence of S9 at concentrations in the range of 200-300 nl/ml (3-4 mM) and became lethal at approximately 400 nl/ml (5mM) (Caspary and Myhr, 1986; Shelby et al., 1987).
Methylamine is formed in rats from the metabolism of endogenous compounds such as epinephrine (Schayer et al., 1952), sarcosine, glycine, and creatine (Davis and deRopp, 1961).

 DuPont Methylamines: Handling
Methylamine spills, even if not ignited, should be thoroughly diluted with a water spray to minimize the fire hazard by raising the boiling and flash points.

Wastewater containing small amounts of methylamines must be disposed of by procedures that comply with federal, state, and local water pollution regulations.

 Documentation for Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health Concentrations (IDLHs)
Deichmann and Gerarde [1969] stated that inhalation of methylamine vapors (greater than 100 ppm) causes irritation of the nose and throat, followed by violent sneezing, burning sensation of the throat, coughing, constriction of the larynx and difficulty in breathing, pulmonary congestion, and edema of the lungs.
Human data: It has been reported that transient irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat has resulted from brief exposures to concentrations of 20 to 100 ppm; the odor was intolerable at 100 to 500 ppm [Clayton and Clayton 1981].
Inhalation of methylamine vapors (at concentrations greater than 100 ppm) has caused irritation of the nose and throat, followed by violent sneezing, burning sensation of the throat, coughing, constriction of the larynx and difficulty in breathing, pulmonary congestion, and edema of the lungs [Deichmann and Gerarde 1969].

 Methylamine Synthesis FAQ
However, the methylamine produced by this method is eminently suitable for the many purposes normally intended and if allowed to sublimate some when heating, no adjustment for "purity" or "water content" need be made in subsequent uses of it.

If you have a saturated solution of methylamine at 12.5 C (where 1154 vols of the gas are soluble) and heat it to 25 C where only 959 vols are soluble, the difference will come out of solution.
Once the methylamine is cooled down all that remains is to wash it with chloroform.

 Explaining the strength of organic bases
Methylamine is typical of aliphatic primary amines - where the -NH group is attached to a carbon chain.
The nitrogen is more negative in methylamine than in ammonia, and so it picks up a hydrogen ion more readily.
The ion formed from methylamine is more stable than the one formed from ammonia, and so is less likely to shed the hydrogen ion again.

 Location of Benzene in NaBeta Zeolite upon Coadsorption of Ammonia and Methylamine: A Further Confirmation of Molecular ...
The adsorption of a single component such as ammonia and methylamine in NaBeta zeolite has been first investigated by means of in-situ infrared spectroscopy, and the effect of coadsorption of ammonia and methylamine on the location of benzene has been then checked.
It is found that the interaction of ammonia and methylamine with NaBeta causes an important modification of lattice parameters, indicating the deformation of zeolite framework.
Despite this deformation of zeolite framework upon coadsorption of either ammonia or methylamine, only adsorption of benzene in Na ions and no change in the location of benzene are observed.

Methylamine, but not ammonia, is hypophagic in mouse by interaction with brain Kv1.6 channel subtype
Ammonia and methylamine (MET) are endogenous compounds increased during liver and renal failure, Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia and diabetes, where they alter some neurobehavioural functions probably acting as potassium channel blockers.
Reverse transcription−polymerase chain reaction, Western blot and immunohistochemical results indicate that a full expression in the brain of Kv1.6 is required only for the activity of MET, and confirms the different action mechanism of ammonia and MET.
