Propanamines
Propanamines, also known as aminopropanes, are a class of organic compounds characterized by a propane backbone with an amine group attached. This amine group, containing a nitrogen atom bonded to at least one carbon atom, dictates their chemical properties. Propanamines can exist in three isomeric forms, differing in the position of the amine group on the propane chain. These are 1-propanamine, 2-propanamine, and N-methyl-1-propanamine.
1-Propanamine, also known as propylamine, has the amine group attached to the terminal carbon atom of the
Propanamines exhibit basic properties due to the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom, allowing them
