Chroman-5-amine hydrochloride; CAS No.: 1965309-15-2; Chroman-5-amine hydrochloride. PROPERTIES: This chroman amine salt has molecular formula C9H11NO2 {HCl. It generally appears as a white crystalline powder. The Chroman-5-amine hydrochloride exhibits high water solubility (exceeding 100 mg/mL) and moderate solubility in common polar solvents. Its melting point ranges between 180-185 C (with decomposition), and it has a molecular weight of approximately 193.64 g/mol (free base). When handling, care should be taken to avoid skin contact and use of proper respiratory protection. Storage should be in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. The hydrochloride salt form makes it hygroscopic, requiring proper sealing during storage. In case of eye contact, immediate rinsing with water for 15 minutes is necessary. APPLICATIONS: The Chroman-5-amine hydrochloride serves as a critical intermediate in the synthesis of dual orexin receptor antagonists for insomnia treatment where the amine group provides essential hydrogen bonding interactions with receptor subtypes (as reported in medicinal chemistry literature). Additionally, the compound functions as a building block in the preparation of agrochemicals with fungicidal activity, though this application is mentioned only for informational purposes per your request. The amine group can be further functionalized through acylation or sulfonamidation reactions to produce various derivatives for chemical research applications.
