CAS 462-94-2: Cadaverine

Description: Cadaverine, with the CAS number 462-94-2, is a biogenic amine characterized by its chemical structure as a straight-chain diamine, specifically 1,5-pentanediamine. It is produced through the decarboxylation of the amino acid lysine, primarily during the decomposition of animal tissues, which is why it is often associated with the smell of decaying flesh. Cadaverine is colorless and has a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of rotting meat. It is soluble in water and exhibits basic properties due to the presence of two amine groups. In biological contexts, cadaverine can be involved in various metabolic processes and is known to play a role in cellular signaling. While it is not typically found in significant concentrations in living organisms, its presence can indicate microbial activity and tissue breakdown. Cadaverine is also of interest in the fields of biochemistry and forensic science, as its detection can provide insights into decomposition processes.
