Isopropylamine (also known asmonoisopropyl amine,MIPA, or2-propylamine) is anorganic compound, anamine. It is ahygroscopic colorless liquid withammonia-like odor. It is miscible with water and flammable. It is a valuable intermediate in chemical industry.[3]
Isopropylamine exhibits reactions typical of other simple alkyl amines, i.e. protonation, alkylation, acylation, condensation with carbonyls.Like other simplealiphatic amines, isopropylamine is aweak base: the pKa of [(CH3)2)CHNH3]+ is 10.63.[4]
Isopropylamine can be obtained byreaction ofisopropyl alcohol withammonia in presence of a catalyst:[3]
Isopropylamine is a building block for the preparation of manyherbicides andpesticides includingatrazine,bentazon,glyphosate,imazapyr,ametryne,desmetryn,prometryn,pramitol,dipropetryn,propazine,fenamiphos, andiprodione.[3] It is a regulating agent forplastics, an intermediate in organic synthesis of coating materials, plastics, pesticides, rubber chemicals, pharmaceuticals and others, and is an additive in thepetroleum industry.
