Description

General description

4-Methoxyphenethylamine inhibits the monoamine oxidase-catalyzed deamination of both tyramine and tryptamine.

4-Methoxyphenethylamine is used as a precursor for the synthesis of other organic compounds by the alkylation reaction.

Application

4-Methoxyphenethylamine was used in the synthesis of :

• pyrrolo[3,2-c]carbazole
• poly(4-methoxyphenethylamine), required for the immobilization of nitrogenated bases and oligonucleotides
• organopolyphosphazenes such as poly[bis(4-methoxy benzylamino)polyphosphazene] and poly[bis(4-methoxyphenethylamino)polyphosphazene]
