General description

4-Piperidinemethanol is a cyclic secondary amine. Its standard molar enthalpies of combustion, sublimation and formation have been determined.

Application

4-Piperidinemethanol may be used in the preparation of:
  • N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-4-hydroxymethyl piperidine
  • desferrioxamine B (DFO) containing third generation triazine dendrimer
  • ethyl 3-(4-(hydroxymethyl)piperidin-1-yl)propanoate (EHMPP)
  • 4-(hydroxymethyl)piperidine-1-carbodithioic acid (HL)
  • 1-[[(1E)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethenyl]sulfonyl]-4-piperidinemethanol
Substrate used in solid-phase organic synthesis of a secondary amine.
