Application

2-Amino-6-methylheptane can be used as:
  • A building block for the synthesis of n-type photoconductor, N,N′-bis(1,5-dimethylhexyl)-3,4:9,10-perylenebis (dicarbox-imide) (PDHEP).
  • A reagent in the synthesis of substituted pyrrolidones by reductive amination of levulinic acid using supported platinum catalyst.
  • A nucleophilic amine in the synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfamide by reacting with sulfamic acid salts and triphenylphosphine ditriflate.
