2-Amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol

Description:
2-Amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, also known as AMPD, is an organic compound characterized by its amino alcohol structure. It features a central carbon atom bonded to an amino group (-NH2), two hydroxyl groups (-OH), and a methyl group, making it a versatile building block in organic synthesis. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in water due to the presence of hydroxyl groups, which facilitate hydrogen bonding. AMPD is often used as a buffering agent in biochemical applications, particularly in the preparation of biological buffers and in cell culture media. Its ability to stabilize pH levels makes it valuable in various laboratory settings. Additionally, it can serve as a precursor in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. The compound is generally considered to have low toxicity, but safety precautions should still be observed when handling it in laboratory environments.
