2-Methyl-2-propanyl (4-aminophenyl)carbamate(CAS: 71026-66-9)

2-Methyl-2-propanyl (4-aminophenyl)carbamate is a solid compound with a crystalline form. Its molecular weight is approximately 231.28 g/mol. It is slightly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and acetone. Chemically, it is reactive towards acids and bases. It is stable under normal conditions but should be stored in a closed container away from strong acids and bases.

2-Methyl-2-propanyl (4-aminophenyl)carbamate is synthesized through an amide coupling reaction. Typically, 2-propanol is reacted with 4-aminophenyl isocyanate in the presence of a coupling agent like 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) and a base such as triethylamine. The reaction is carried out at room temperature and provides a good yield with high selectivity.

2-Methyl-2-propanyl (4-aminophenyl)carbamate is used in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of certain drugs. It is also applicable in the polymer industry for the modification of polymer properties. Additionally, it can be used in the development of sensors and as a precursor in semiconductor manufacturing processes.

When handling 2-Methyl-2-propanyl (4-aminophenyl)carbamate, it is recommended to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. The compound should be handled under a fume hood to avoid inhalation. Spills should be cleaned up using a suitable absorbent material and the area should be flushed with water. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed emergency procedures and storage guidelines.
