Allylamine
Description
Allylamine (CAS 107-11-9), also referred to as 3-aminopropene, is a reactive primary amine and vinyl monomer used across pharmaceutical synthesis, agrochemical production, and polymer manufacturing.
Its bifunctional structure, combining an amine group with a terminal double bond, makes it a sought-after building block for multi-step synthesis and polymerization processes.
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, allylamine serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of antifungal active ingredients, including terbinafine and naftifine for various medical applications.
Agrochemical producers use it as a precursor in the preparation of herbicides and fungicides where controlled amine reactivity is required for effective crop protection and management.
In polymer chemistry, it undergoes free-radical polymerization to produce polyallylamine, a cationic polymer used in water treatment, paper manufacturing, and surface coating formulations.
It also functions as a pH buffer and chain-initiating component in specialty resin and hydrogel systems, providing essential structural properties for advanced material science applications.
Allylamine is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid. It is available in technical grade for industrial and polymer applications, as well as high-purity grades for specific needs.
Our material meets pharmaceutical intermediate specifications. Packaging typically ranges from drums to IBC containers, with bulk quantities available for commercial-scale procurement.
