Description:1-Butanamine, hydrochloride (1:1), also known as butylamine hydrochloride, is an organic compound characterized by its amine functional group. It is a colorless to pale yellow solid that is highly soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride salt, which enhances its solubility compared to the free amine. This compound has a molecular formula of C4H11ClN and a molecular weight that reflects its constituent elements. As a primary amine, 1-butanamine can participate in various chemical reactions, including alkylation and acylation, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits basic properties, allowing it to react with acids to form salts, and it can also engage in hydrogen bonding due to the presence of the amino group. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as amines can be irritants and may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage in a cool, dry place is recommended to maintain its stability.
