N-(2,2-Dimethylpropyl)-2-methylbenzenamine

Description:

N-(2,2-Dimethylpropyl)-2-methylbenzenamine, with the CAS number 74173-02-7, is an organic compound characterized by its amine functional group and aromatic structure. This substance features a 2-methylbenzene (or toluene) ring, which is substituted with an amine group and a branched alkyl chain, specifically a 2,2-dimethylpropyl group. The presence of the amine group imparts basic properties to the compound, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions. The branched alkyl chain contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its solubility in organic solvents rather than water. Additionally, the steric hindrance from the bulky substituents can affect the compound's reactivity and interaction with other molecules. This compound may be utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis or in the production of specialty chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as amines can be hazardous.
