2-(oxetan-2-yl)ethan-1-amine; CAS No.: 1536914-60-9; 2-(oxetan-2-yl)ethan-1-amine. PROPERTIES: 2-(oxetan-2-yl)ethan-1-amine appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a slight amine odor. Its molecular formula is C5H11NO2, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 117.15 g/mol. The compound exhibits a boiling point around 140-145 C at 760 mmHg and a density of about 1.05 g/cm? at 25 C. It demonstrates moderate solubility in common organic solvents such as methanol, acetone, and diethyl ether but is sparingly soluble in water. The substance is sensitive to strong acids and bases, which may cause amine salt formation or ring-opening reactions. Proper storage requires keeping it in a tightly sealed, amber glass container in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The temperature should be maintained below 10 C if possible. Safety precautions include using chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and lab coats to prevent skin absorption and inhalation of vapors. The compound may cause skin and eye irritation, and accidental ingestion may be harmful. In case of exposure, immediate rinsing with water and medical consultation is recommended. APPLICATIONS: 2-(oxetan-2-yl)ethan-1-amine serves as a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the preparation of certain antidepressants and antipsychotics. Its oxetane and amine groups provide structural features important for receptor binding and bioactivity. In biochemical research, it functions as a building block for creating enzyme inhibitors and prodrugs. Additionally, it finds application in the development of fluorescent probes for bioimaging, where its amine group allows for selective labeling of biological targets such as proteins and lipids. The compound is also employed in the synthesis of agrochemicals, though specific applications in this area are limited to non-agricultural research settings.
