4-Aminobutanamide

Description:
4-Aminobutanamide, also known as gamma-aminobutyric acid amide or GABA amide, is an organic compound characterized by its amine and amide functional groups. It has a molecular formula of C4H10N2O and features a four-carbon chain with an amino group (-NH2) and an amide group (-C(=O)NH2) attached to it. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups. 4-Aminobutanamide is of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and biochemistry, as it is related to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in the central nervous system. Its potential applications include acting as a precursor in the synthesis of other bioactive compounds and exploring its effects on neurological functions. Safety data indicates that, like many amines and amides, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
