Allylamine

Allylamine (CAS 107-11-9) is a primary amine carrying a reactive vinyl group, also known commercially as 2-Propenamine, Monoallylamine, 3-Aminopropene, and NSC 7600. It belongs to the allylic amine class and combines nucleophilic amine reactivity with olefinic polymerization capability in a single molecule.

In pharmaceutical synthesis, allylamine serves as a building block for antifungal compounds, where the amine group undergoes selective alkylation to form active intermediates. In polymer chemistry, it functions as a functional monomer in radical polymerization, introducing primary amine groups directly into polymer backbones for applications in adhesives and surface coatings. It also acts as a pH buffer and intermediate in agrochemical production.

Allylamine is supplied in technical and synthesis grades and falls under REACH registration requirements for European procurement. Buyers should confirm supplier SDS documentation and confirm compliance with applicable handling classifications under CLP regulation. Standard packaging formats include drums and IBC containers for bulk orders.
