4-(2-aminoethyl)-N,N-dimethylaniline; CAS No.: 52632-05-0; 4-(2-aminoethyl)-N,N-dimethylaniline. PROPERTIES: This aromatic amine is a colorless liquid with molecular formula C10H15N. Its molecular weight is 151.23 g/mol and it boils at 215-220 C at 760 mmHg. The compound is miscible with polar solvents and has limited water solubility. It should be stored in tightly sealed containers at room temperature away from oxidizing agents and acidic materials. Being a primary amine, it may cause severe skin burns and eye damage; full protective equipment is recommended during handling. APPLICATIONS: In the field of materials science, this compound serves as monomer for producing polyurethanes with enhanced flexibility. The amine groups react with isocyanates to form urethane linkages (Journal of Applied Polymer Science). In pharmaceutical applications, it acts as intermediate for synthesizing alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonists used in benign prostatic hyperplasia treatment. The aminoethyl group provides flexible chain for receptor binding while the dimethylamino group contributes to basicity (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry). Additionally, it functions as starting material for producing fluorescent dyes where the aromatic amine is converted to fluorophore through diazotization and coupling reactions (Dyes and Pigments). These applications leverage its combination of aromatic amine functionality and aliphatic amine for constructing diverse materials and pharmaceuticals.
