Description
Isopropylamine, also known as 2-aminopropane or 2-propanamine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkylamines. These are organic compounds containing an primary aliphatic amine group. Isopropylamine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Isopropylamine is an ammoniacal and fishy tasting compound. Isopropylamine is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as corns (Zea mays), red wine, and white wine. Isopropylamine has also been detected, but not quantified in, soy beans (Glycine max). This could make isopropylamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Isopropylamine.
