1-(3-Aminopropyl)piperidin-4-ol

CAS 4608-78-0C8H18N2OChemical Synthesis

1-(3-Aminopropyl)piperidin-4-ol is a bifunctional heterocyclic building block (CAS 4608-78-0; molecular formula C8H18N2O; molar mass 158.24 g/mol). It pairs a 4-hydroxypiperidine ring with a pendant primary aminopropyl chain, giving both a secondary alcohol and a basic amine for selective functionalisation. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade reagent for chemical synthesis, where it serves chiefly as an intermediate and scaffold in medicinal and fine-chemical research programmes.

01 /Applications

Heterocyclic building block

Used as a piperidine-based scaffold in chemical synthesis, where the saturated nitrogen ring offers a versatile core for constructing more elaborate target molecules.

Pharmaceutical intermediate research

Serves as an intermediate in medicinal-chemistry and discovery programmes. The aminopropyl side chain is a common point for amide, urea or reductive-amination chemistry when assembling candidate structures.

Bifunctional handle for derivatisation

The molecule carries both a primary amine and a secondary hydroxyl group, allowing chemists to functionalise the two sites independently or to use the amine as a linker in conjugation chemistry.

Laboratory reagent and reference material

Supplied for general laboratory and method-development work that calls for a defined small-molecule amine alcohol of known formula and molecular weight.
