CAS 2338-18-3 · Amine · 2 functional traits · cGMP compliant · Ships from USA in 2-3 days
2-aminoindane HCl (CAS Number: 2338-18-3) is an amine-functionalized compound with nucleophilic nitrogen reactivity. ChemContract Research supplies this simple-complexity compound in high purity from our Huntington Beach, California facility, ensuring consistent quality and reliable domestic delivery throughout the United States. Supplied as the hydrochloride salt form for enhanced stability and handling.
Amines are among the most prevalent functional groups in drug molecules — over 80% of small-molecule pharmaceuticals contain at least one amine moiety. Hydrochloride is the most common salt form for basic drug substances — approximately half of all salt-form drugs on the market are HCl salts, valued for their crystallinity and aqueous solubility.
Primary applications include buchwald–hartwig amination for aryl c–n bond construction and improved handling characteristics versus the free base form. This compound serves researchers and manufacturers across the pharmaceutical, polymer, agrochemical sectors. Whether you require 2-aminoindane HCl for early-stage research, process development, or commercial-scale production, ChemContract Research offers flexible ordering from milligram to multi-kilogram quantities with custom synthesis options and full batch documentation including Certificates of Analysis (CoA) and Safety Data Sheets.

Detailed specifications for this amine, including purity, molecular weight, and analytical data are available upon request. Every batch from ChemContract Research includes:
Amines may have strong odors and can be corrosive to skin. Handle under adequate ventilation with chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection. Handle with standard precautions. Hydrochloride salts are generally more stable than free bases.
Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from acids and oxidizing agents. Keep containers tightly sealed as many amines are hygroscopic. Store at room temperature in a tightly sealed container. Protect from humidity.
Amines are the most prevalent pharmacophore in drug molecules. 2-aminoindane HCl is supplied with salt-form options and free-base conversion protocols.
Every batch of 2-aminoindane HCl is produced under cGMP conditions with full CoA documentation, HPLC purity verification, and lot traceability.
