2-Pentanamine

Description:
2-Pentanamine, also known as amylamine, is an organic compound characterized by its amine functional group attached to a five-carbon alkane chain. It has the molecular formula C5H13N and features a primary amine structure, which means that the amine group (-NH2) is located at the second carbon of the pentane chain. This positioning influences its physical and chemical properties, including its boiling point, solubility, and reactivity. 2-Pentanamine is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic amine odor. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, making it versatile for various applications. The compound can participate in reactions typical of amines, such as alkylation and acylation, and is often used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and surfactants. Additionally, it can act as a building block in organic synthesis due to its nucleophilic nature. Safety precautions should be taken when handling 2-pentanamine, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes.
