Benzeneethanamine, α-(fluoromethyl)-, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:

Benzeneethanamine, α-(fluoromethyl)-, hydrochloride (1:1), also known as 2-(fluoromethyl)phenethylamine hydrochloride, is a chemical compound characterized by its amine functional group and a fluoromethyl substituent on the ethyl side chain of the phenyl ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water and various organic solvents, which is common for hydrochloride salts. The presence of the fluoromethyl group can influence its reactivity and biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology. As a hydrochloride salt, it is often more stable and easier to handle than its free base form. The compound may exhibit properties related to neurotransmitter activity, potentially interacting with monoamine systems in biological contexts. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many amines and their derivatives, due to potential toxicity and reactivity. Always refer to material safety data sheets (MSDS) for specific handling guidelines and safety information.
