N-(3-Aminopropyl)-2-pipecoline
N-(3-Aminopropyl)-2-pipecoline (CAS 25560-00-3) is a difunctional aliphatic amine with the molecular formula C9H20N2 and a molar mass of 156.27 g/mol. It pairs a 2-methylpiperidine (2-pipecoline) ring with a pendant 3-aminopropyl chain, giving a primary amine alongside a tertiary ring nitrogen. Supplied as a liquid of around 96% assay, it serves chiefly as a heterocyclic building block in chemical synthesis and as an HPLC internal standard. Tech Serve Solutions supplies and exports it worldwide.

Heterocyclic building block
Used as a C9 piperidine building block in chemical synthesis, where its primary amine and 2-methylpiperidine ring provide convenient sites for amide formation, alkylation and further functionalisation.
Synthesis of thiourea derivatives
Documented in the preparation of novel piperidinylethyl, phenoxyethyl and fluoroethyl thiourea compounds investigated for anti-HIV activity, where it contributes the substituted piperidine moiety.
HPLC internal standard
Employed as an internal standard in the HPLC determination of arginine, agmatine and their metabolites, supporting reproducible quantification in analytical workflows.
Amine intermediate for research
Its combination of a primary aliphatic amine and a tertiary ring nitrogen makes it a useful intermediate for ligands, chelating motifs and structure-activity studies in laboratory research.
