Description

4-(Dodecyloxy)benzene-1,3-diamine (CAS No. 141505-05-7) is a high-purity aromatic diamine compound with the molecular formula C₁₈H₃₂N₂O. This specialized chemical features a dodecyloxy substituent on a benzene ring, flanked by two amine groups at the 1 and 3 positions, making it a valuable intermediate for advanced organic synthesis and material science applications. Its unique amphiphilic structure (combining hydrophobic dodecyl chain and hydrophilic diamine groups) enables applications in surfactants, polymer modification, and surface functionalization. Available in >95% purity (HPLC), this compound is supplied as a light-sensitive solid with strict storage recommendations (2-8°C under inert atmosphere). Ideal for researchers developing functional polymers, liquid crystals, or supramolecular systems requiring tailored amine reactivity and controlled hydrophobicity.
