INTRODUCTION

Piperazine is an organic compound that consists of a six-membered ring containing two nitrogen atoms at opposite positions in the ring. Piperazine exists as small alkaline deliquescent crystals with a saline taste. Piperazine is supplied as (anhydrous) Piperazine 99%.

Manufacture
Piperazine is generally prepared by treating ammonia with ethylene diamine, amino ethyl ethylene diamine, monoethanol amine or diethanol amine; or hydrogenation of N-(amino ethyl) ethanol amine.
