Propargylamine

Propargylamine is an organic compound with the formula HC≡CCH2NH2.

It is a colorless, odorless liquid that is used as a precursor to other compounds.

[1] Propargyl amines are produced by reactions of amines with propargyl halides.

The behavior of propargyl amine is illustrated by its acylation benzoyl chloride to the amide.

A Sonogashira coupling of the terminal alkyne end with another equivalent of benzoylchloride gives the dicarbonyl, a precursor to an oxazole.
