Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-Methyl-1-butylamine
Description3-Methyl-1-butylamine, also known as isoamylamine or 3,3-dimethylpropylamine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkylamines. These are organic compounds containing an primary aliphatic amine group. A primary aliphatic amine that is butan-1-amine carrying a methyl substituent at position 3. 3-Methyl-1-butylamine is an ammonia and unpleasant tasting compound. 3-methyl-1-butylamine has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as green vegetables, black elderberries, root vegetables, corns, and french plantains. This could make 3-methyl-1-butylamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
