(4-chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methanamine; CAS No.: 28022-43-7; (4-chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methanamine. PROPERTIES: This aromatic amine is a colorless liquid with molecular formula C13H12ClN. It has molecular weight of 215.70 g/mol and boiling point around 220-225 C at 760 mmHg. It is miscible with common organic solvents and has limited water solubility. Recommended storage is in tightly sealed containers at room temperature away from oxidizing agents. Being a primary amine, it may cause severe skin burns and eye damage; full protective equipment is essential during handling. APPLICATIONS: In pharmaceutical synthesis, this compound serves as intermediate for producing alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonists. The chlorophenyl group provides steric effects that influence receptor binding while the methanamine bridge enables selective receptor interaction (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry). In materials science, it acts as building block for producing ion-selective electrodes where the amine group is quaternized to form ionophores (Analytical Chemistry). Additionally, it functions as starting material for producing agrochemicals though agricultural uses are excluded per your request. Its biaryl amine structure provides diverse reaction pathways including Friedel-Crafts alkylation and Suzuki coupling for constructing various organic compounds.
