2-Morpholin-4-yl-2-o-tolyl-ethylamine

Description:

2-Morpholin-4-yl-2-o-tolyl-ethylamine is a chemical compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes a morpholine ring and an o-tolyl group attached to an ethylamine backbone. This compound typically exhibits properties such as being a solid at room temperature, with potential solubility in polar organic solvents due to the presence of both amine and ether functionalities. The morpholine moiety contributes to its potential as a pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry, often associated with biological activity. The presence of the o-tolyl group may influence its lipophilicity and interaction with biological targets. Additionally, the compound may exhibit basic properties due to the amine group, allowing it to participate in protonation and hydrogen bonding. Its specific applications and reactivity would depend on the context of its use, particularly in pharmaceutical research or as a building block in organic synthesis. As with any chemical substance, safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and toxicity information.
