Application

Amylamine can be used in the imidization of 2,6-dibromonaphthalene and 2,3,6,7-tetrabromonaphthalene bisanhydride, which are used to synthesize polybromo naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid diimides (NDIs).
It can be also be used to synthesize:
  • N


  • -pentyl side chains of a cyclic heptapeptoid which forms the core of verticilide
  • N-pentyl sulfamides from sulfamate salts.

Amylamine is a general reagent used in functionalizing the target molecules with pentyl chain. It has also been used as a cosurfactant to increase the phase stability of the bilayer systems.
