4-Pyrimidinamine, 2-methyl, also known by its CAS number 74-69-1, is an organic compound characterized by a pyrimidine ring substituted with an amino group and a methyl group. This compound features a six-membered aromatic heterocyclic structure containing two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3 of the ring. The presence of the amino group (-NH2) contributes to its basicity and potential reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The methyl group at position 2 influences the compound's physical properties, such as solubility and boiling point. Typically, 4-pyrimidinamine, 2-methyl is a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in polar solvents. Its chemical behavior can be influenced by the functional groups present, allowing for various reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
