1-AMINOHEPTANE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

CLEAR COLORLESS TO SLIGHTLY YELLOW LIQUID

Chemical Properties

1-Aminoheptane is a flammable liquid.

Uses

Heptylamine is used in organic syntheses.

Uses

1-Heptylamine has been used as an internal standard in the determination of biogenic monoamines and biogenic diamines by the fluorescence-HPLC method. It has also been used to study the effect of hydration on the gaseous structure of protonated heptylamine by infrared photo dissociation (IRPD) spectroscopy and computational chemistry.

Uses

1-Aminoheptane can be used to prepare implantable devices having antibacterial properties and multifunctional surfaces.

Definition

ChEBI: Heptylamine is an alkylamine.
