Description

1-Aminoheptadecane is a molecule with a high molecular weight that belongs to the group of nonpolar solvents. It is used in wastewater treatment and has shown amine-releasing activity. 1-Aminoheptadecane reacts with water vapor to produce hydrogen gas, ammonia, and other products that can be removed from the reaction vessel by vacuum distillation. 1-Aminoheptadecane also polymerizes in the presence of a catalyst at low temperature and high pressure to form polyamides. The polymerization process can be initiated by adding an oxidizing agent such as air or oxygen. The resulting product is a water-soluble polymer that has been shown to have antibacterial activity against Streptococcus faecalis cells.
1-Aminoheptadecane is not toxic to animals, but it may cause irritation to skin and eyes because it contains carboxylates and fatty acids which
