Description

n-Amylaminehydrochloride is an organic amine salt with the CAS number 142-65-4, widely utilized as a versatile building block and intermediate in chemical synthesis. Its primary value lies in its ability to introduce the n-amyl (pentyl) amine moiety into target molecules, facilitating the production of more complex compounds. This chemical is essential for research and development laboratories, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and agrochemical producers seeking to develop new active ingredients or functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for compounds requiring a pentylamine functional group.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators where the amine salt acts as a crucial precursor.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Serves as an alkylamine source in nucleophilic substitution reactions, amidation processes, and the preparation of quaternary ammonium salts.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Formulation: A component in specialty chemical formulations designed to protect metal surfaces in industrial processes.
• Dye and Pigment Manufacturing: Intermediate in the synthesis of certain organic colorants and photographic chemicals.
• Research & Development: A valuable standard and reagent in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new synthetic pathways and material properties.

Quality Control

Our n-Amylaminehydrochloride is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profile analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting the results are available for every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and handling.
