2-Butoxybenzenamine, also known as 2-(Butoxy)aniline, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an aniline group (an amino group attached to a benzene ring) with a butoxy substituent at the ortho position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic butoxy group. 2-Butoxybenzenamine is known for its applications in the synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals, as well as serving as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The presence of the amino group makes it a potential nucleophile, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including acylation and alkylation. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it may pose health risks upon exposure, including skin and respiratory irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is essential to maintain its stability and prevent degradation.

2-Butoxyaniline (2BA) is a molecule with the chemical formula C6H11NO. 2BA has properties that are intermediate between those of acetonitrile and diethylamine. 2BA can react with hexyl bromide to form an adduct, which can be used to estimate molecular size. The kinetics of this reaction have been studied and show that the rate of formation of the adduct increases as the temperature is increased. 2BA has also been shown to be acidic in aqueous solution, and can react with dodecyl chloride to form an ester, which may be useful for the synthesis of dyes.
2BA has been found to interact with dimethylformamide (DMF) through an auxochrome mechanism, and when mixed with dialkylamines at high temperatures, it forms hydrogen bonds. This molecule also interacts with other molecules through intermolecular hydrogen bonds and hydrogen bonds.
