Description

2-Methoxyethanamine is a metabolite of the drug 2-methoxyethanol. It is an amine that can be found in urine samples. Its structure consists of a hydroxyl group, sodium carbonate, and an intramolecular hydrogen. 2-Methoxyethanamine inhibits the production of angiotensin II, which reduces blood pressure. This molecule has antihypertensive activity because it prevents the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II in the kidneys. 2-Methoxyethanamine also has a stepwise mechanism for its synthesis from ethylene diamine and nitrogen atoms. It can be oxidized by hydrochloric acid or reduced by hydrogen bond or amines. The redox potential of this molecule is -0.06 V, which makes it a nucleophilic compound with an amide bond as its conjugate base.
