CAS 693-16-3

(±)-2-Octanamine

Description:

(±)-2-Octanamine, with the CAS number 693-16-3, is an organic compound classified as an amine. It features a straight-chain octane backbone with an amino group (-NH2) attached to the second carbon atom. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic amine odor. It is soluble in water due to the presence of the polar amino group, which allows for hydrogen bonding. The presence of the long hydrocarbon chain contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, making it partially soluble in organic solvents. (±)-2-Octanamine can exist as a racemic mixture, containing both enantiomers, which may exhibit different biological activities. It is used in various applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis, in the production of surfactants, and potentially in pharmaceuticals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as amines can be irritants and may pose health risks upon exposure.

2-Aminooctane

CAS: 693-16-3

2-Aminooctane is an organic compound that has a variety of industrial applications. It is used in the production of butyric acid and as a viscosity index improver in lubricating oils. 2-Aminooctane is also used to produce nitrides, which are compounds containing nitrogen and at least one other element. These compounds are useful for their high thermal stability, low reactivity, and high melting point. 2-Aminooctane can be obtained by oxidizing 2-aminoethanol with nitric acid or by reacting aminobutyric acid with formaldehyde. The product is then distilled under vacuum to remove excess water and other volatile substances.
2-Aminooctane is a colorless liquid that boils at 140°C (284°F) and freezes at -89°C (-129°F). It has an acidic odor and can react with bases such as calcium hydroxide to form calcium amin
