[1-(3-Aminopropyl)piperidin-2-yl]methanol
[1-(3-Aminopropyl)piperidin-2-yl]methanol (CAS 915919-64-1) is a difunctional piperidine building block with the molecular formula C9H20N2O and a molar mass of 172.27 g/mol. The molecule combines a saturated piperidine ring bearing a primary aminopropyl chain on nitrogen with a hydroxymethyl group at the 2-position, giving complementary amine and alcohol handles. It is used chiefly as a heterocyclic intermediate in chemical synthesis and medicinal-chemistry research. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it worldwide as a research-grade reagent.

Heterocyclic building block
Serves as a piperidine-based scaffold in multi-step organic synthesis, where the saturated ring and pendant functional groups provide a versatile starting point for elaborating more complex molecules.
Medicinal-chemistry intermediate
The piperidine core is a common motif in pharmaceutical research, and this compound can act as an intermediate during the preparation and structure-activity exploration of candidate molecules.
Amine functionalisation
The primary amine on the aminopropyl side chain offers a reactive site for acylation, reductive amination, urea or sulfonamide formation, and conjugation chemistry.
Hydroxyl-directed transformations
The hydroxymethyl group at the ring 2-position allows oxidation, esterification, etherification and protection-deprotection sequences, enabling selective derivatisation of the molecule.
Laboratory research and reference use
Supplied for discovery chemistry, method development and other research applications that require a defined difunctional piperidine reagent.
