General description

5-Aminopentan-1-ol is a colorless to faint yellow liquid.

Application

5-amino-1-pentanol is used in the preparation of fibres from random copolypeptides consisting of N-hydroxyalkyl L-glutamine and gamma-methyl L-glutamate with different monomer ratios. 5-amino-1-pentanol (5-Aminopentan-1-ol) was also used in the preparation of 5-phthalimidopentanal and tetracyclic core of the natural compound (+/-)-dibromoagelaspongin.

A six-step synthesis of the tetracyclic core of the natural compound (+/-)-dibromoagelaspongin, isolated from Agelas sp. Sponge, was achieved from the commercially available 5-aminopentan-1-ol, 2-trichloroacetylpyrrole, and 2-aminopyrimidine. Following a biomimetic inspired approach, successive oxidative reactions including the final DMDO biomimetic

Fibres from random copolypeptides consisting of N-hydroxyalkyl L-glutamine and gamma-methyl L-glutamate with different monomer ratios were prepared by aminoalcoholysis of a poly(gamma-methyl L-glutamate) fibre with 2-amino-1-ethanol or 5-amino-1-pentanol, both with 1,8-octamethylenediamine as cross-linking agent. The initial tensile properties as well

Despite intensive research effort, the rational design of improved nanoparticulate drug carriers remains challenging, in part due to a limited understanding of the determinants of nanoparticle entry and transport in target cells. Recent studies have shown that Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1)

Galactosylglycerolipids (GGLs) and chlorophyll are characteristic components of chloroplast in photosynthetic organisms. Although chlorophyll is anchored to the thylakoid membrane by phytol (tetramethylhexadecenol), this isoprenoid alcohol has never been found as a constituent of GGLs. We here described a novel
