2-Aminobutanamide, with the CAS number 53726-14-0, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an amine and an amide functional group. It features a four-carbon butane backbone with an amino group (-NH2) attached to the second carbon and an amide group (-C(=O)NH2) at the terminal position. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups. Its molecular structure allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, making it useful in synthetic organic chemistry and potentially in pharmaceutical applications. The presence of the amino group contributes to its basicity, while the amide group can engage in hydrogen bonding, influencing its physical properties and reactivity. 2-Aminobutanamide may also exhibit biological activity, which warrants further investigation for potential applications in medicinal chemistry. As with many amines and amides, it should be handled with care, considering safety protocols for chemical substances.

2-Aminobutanamide is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of aminobutyric acids. It is used in the preparation of other chemicals, such as l-tartaric acid and phosphorus pentachloride. 2-Aminobutanamide can be prepared by reacting l-tartaric acid with phosphorus pentachloride and hydrochloric acid, followed by neutralizing the mixture with sodium hydroxide solution. The product is then heated to decompose excess ammonia and hydrochloric acid, resulting in 2-aminobutanamide. 2-Aminobutanamide has an acidic property and is used as an industrial preparation for its catalytic properties. It can also be used in kinetic studies because it has a disulfide bond.br>br>Brucella, which causes brucellosis, will react with this substance to form a disulfide bond, which can be cleaved by ammonolysis or acidic conditions
