Application

2-Picolylamine is a bihaptic amine that can be used:
  • As a key precursor to synthesize various ionic liquids through the formation of β-amino alcohols as intermediates.
  • As a chelating ligand for the synthesis of complexes such as zinc picolylamine complex and Cu(II) picolylamine complex.
  • To functionalize poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (PSMA) resin to facilitate the adsorption of uranium from aqueous solution.
