CAS 116692-82-1

α-Methyl-N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)benzenemethanamine

Description:

α-Methyl-N-(2-methylcyclohexyl)benzenemethanamine, identified by its CAS number 116692-82-1, is an organic compound characterized by its amine functional group and a complex hydrocarbon structure. This substance features a benzene ring substituted with a methanamine group and an α-methyl group, along with a 2-methylcyclohexyl substituent, contributing to its steric and electronic properties. The presence of the cyclohexyl ring introduces a degree of rigidity and hydrophobic character, which can influence its solubility and reactivity. Typically, compounds of this nature may exhibit moderate to high boiling points and may be solid or liquid at room temperature, depending on their molecular weight and structure. The amine group suggests potential basicity and reactivity with acids, making it useful in various chemical applications, including synthesis and as a potential intermediate in pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure risks, as amines can be irritants and may have specific environmental considerations.
