Applications cis-4-Aminocyclohexanol used in the preparation of potential hypertensive agents and other biologically active compounds. References Chan, K.L. et al.: As. J. Pharmacol. Sci., 1, 91 (1979);

Cis-4-aminocyclohexanol hydrochloride is a monomer that is used in the production of polyamides. It has been shown to have anticancer activity and can be used for the treatment of murine leukemia. Cis-4-aminocyclohexanol hydrochloride binds to DNA, RNA, and fatty acids, which may account for its anticancer activity. It also forms hydrogen bonds with other molecules. The uptake of cis-4-aminocyclohexanol hydrochloride by cells was found to be rapid with high affinity. This chemical is aminated by reaction with ammonia or an amine to form 4-aminocyclohexanemethanol, which reacts with a second molecule of ammonia or an amine to form a urea linkage. Cis-4-aminocyclohexanol hydrochloride is not soluble in water and therefore must be dissolved in solvents such as acetone or ethanol before
