CLamine

CLamine is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3H7NO. It is a primary amine containing a propane backbone. Specifically, it is 1-aminopropane, meaning the amino group (-NH2) is attached to the first carbon atom of the propane chain. CLamine is a colorless liquid at room temperature with a characteristic ammoniacal odor. It is soluble in water and many organic solvents.

CLamine is a basic compound due to the presence of the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom. It can readily react with acids to form salts. Its chemical reactivity is typical of primary amines, participating in reactions such as acylation, alkylation, and Schiff base formation. In industrial applications, CLamine can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic chemicals, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. It may also find use as a solvent or as a component in certain formulations. Due to its chemical properties and potential uses, CLamine is handled with appropriate safety precautions.
