Benzylamine is the chemical compound with the formula C6H5CH2NH2. It consists of a benzyl group, C6H5CH2, attached to an amine functional group. This colorless liquid is a common precursor in organic synthesis.
Uses
It is used as a masked source of ammonia, since after N-alkylation, the benzyl group can be removed by hydrogenolysis:
C6H5CH2NH2 + 2 RBr → C6H5CH2NR2 + 2 HBr
C6H5CH2NR2 + H2 → C6H5CH3 + R2NH
Typically a base is employed in the first step to absorb the HBr (or related acid for other kinds of alkylating agents).
