N-[(3-Ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)methyl]ethanamine
N-[(3-Ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)methyl]ethanamine (CAS 938459-04-2; molecular formula C7H13N3O; molecular weight 155.20) is a 1,2,4-oxadiazole-based building block bearing a secondary ethylamine side chain. The 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring is a stable, bioisosteric heterocycle widely used in medicinal and synthetic chemistry, while the reactive amine offers a convenient handle for further functionalisation. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade reagent and heterocyclic intermediate for discovery and process chemistry.

Heterocyclic building block
Used as a 1,2,4-oxadiazole scaffold in chemical synthesis, providing a stable, electron-poor heterocycle for assembling more elaborate molecules.
Amine handle for derivatisation
The secondary ethylamine group serves as a reactive site for acylation, reductive amination, sulfonylation and related transformations to introduce further substituents.
Medicinal chemistry intermediate
1,2,4-Oxadiazoles are common bioisosteres for esters and amides in drug discovery, so this fragment is suited to exploratory structure-activity work and analogue libraries.
Research and laboratory reagent
Supplied for use in laboratory-scale synthesis and method development where a defined oxadiazole-amine intermediate is required.
