CAS 91245-63-5

N-Methyl-1-(phenylmethyl)cyclopropanamine

Description:

N-Methyl-1-(phenylmethyl)cyclopropanamine, identified by its CAS number 91245-63-5, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of cyclopropanamines. It features a cyclopropane ring, which is a three-membered carbon structure, and is substituted with a phenylmethyl group and a methyl group on the nitrogen atom. This compound exhibits characteristics typical of amines, including basicity due to the presence of the nitrogen atom, which can accept protons. The phenylmethyl group contributes to its hydrophobic nature, potentially influencing its solubility in organic solvents. The cyclopropane moiety may impart unique steric and electronic properties, affecting its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. As with many amines, it may participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its physical properties such as boiling point and melting point. The compound's specific applications and biological activity would depend on its structural features and the context of its use in research or industry. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances.
