H2NCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3

H2NCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 is the chemical formula for hexylamine, also known as 1-aminohexane or n-hexylamine. It is a primary amine with the chemical structure consisting of a six-carbon chain (hexane) with an amino group (NH2) attached to one of the terminal carbon atoms.

Hexylamine is a colorless liquid at room temperature with a characteristic amine odor, often described as fishy or ammoniacal. It is soluble in water and many organic solvents. As a primary amine, it exhibits basic properties due to the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom, readily reacting with acids to form ammonium salts.

This compound finds applications in various industrial processes. It can be used as a building block in the synthesis of other organic chemicals, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and surfactants. Hexylamine can also act as a corrosion inhibitor, a solvent, and an intermediate in the production of dyes and rubber chemicals. Due to its chemical reactivity and physical properties, proper handling and safety precautions are necessary when working with hexylamine.
