Propylamine, also known as n-propylamine, is an amine with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)2NH2. It is a colorless volatile liquid. Propylamine is a weak base.Tranylcypromine is a propylamine antidepressant acting as a monoamine oxidase. Its current use in psychiatry is for the treatment of major depression.
Used in the manufacture of phase transfer catalyst such as Tetra Propyl Ammonium Bromide and Tetra Propyl Ammonium Hydroxide.
dose is 0.038ppm based on 2550 mg maximum daily dose .
The conformational isomerism of isopropylamine and n-propylamine has been investigated by means of an integrated strategy combining high-level quantum-chemical calculations and high-resolution rotational spectroscopy. The equilibrium structures (and thus equilibrium rotational constants) as well as relative energies of all conformers have been computed using the so-called “cheap” composite scheme, which combines the coupled-cluster methodology with second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory for extrapolation to the complete basis set.
