[1-(2-Methoxyethyl)piperidin-3-yl]methanol
[1-(2-Methoxyethyl)piperidin-3-yl]methanol (CAS 915921-51-6) is a functionalised piperidine building block with the molecular formula C9H19NO2 and a molecular weight of 173.25 g/mol. It combines a saturated piperidine ring carrying a 3-hydroxymethyl group with an N-linked 2-methoxyethyl side chain, giving both a reactive primary alcohol and a tertiary amine. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade heterocyclic intermediate for pharmaceutical and fine-chemical synthesis.

Pharmaceutical intermediate
Used as a saturated nitrogen-heterocyclic building block in the synthesis of drug candidates and pharmaceutical intermediates. The piperidine scaffold is a widely employed motif in medicinal chemistry.
Heterocyclic building block
Serves as a versatile C9 piperidine building block for chemical synthesis programmes, providing a pre-formed, N-substituted ring for further elaboration.
Functional handle for derivatisation
The primary hydroxymethyl group offers a convenient site for oxidation, esterification, etherification or conversion to a leaving group, allowing the molecule to be extended into more complex targets.
Amine-directed chemistry
The tertiary piperidine nitrogen, already capped with a 2-methoxyethyl chain, can be exploited for salt formation and as a basic centre when tuning the physicochemical properties of derived compounds.
Research and discovery chemistry
Suited to laboratory- and discovery-scale exploration where a polar, solubilising piperidine fragment is required within structure–activity studies.
