An reagent used in the synthesis of many biologically active compounds including kinase inhibitors, receptor agonists/antagonists and a variety of ligands.
ChEBI: 4-Methylcyclohexylamine is an amine.
A colorless viscous oily liquid with almost no odor. Contact with the skin, eyes and mucous membranes causes severe chemical burns. Toxic by skin absorption. Toxic ammonia and nitrogen oxides may be released upon exposure to fire.
Slowly decomposes in air to yield ammonia.
cis-4-Methylcyclohexylamine. is incompatible with acids and oxidizing agents. Neutralizes acids exothermically to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Generates flammable gaseous hydrogen in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Some are oxidizers and may ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated.
