2-Amino-2-(3-tetrahydrofuranyl)ethanol is the identity linked to CAS 889949-68-2, molecular formula C6H13NO2, and molecular weight 131.17. PubChem maps the registry number to one compound, CID 24729776. The verified connectivity is represented by SMILES C1COCC1C(CO)N and InChIKey BYHDMZFKZJRAOH-UHFFFAOYSA-N. No separate counterion is present in the official graph.
The tetrahydrofuranyl portion is a saturated five-membered ring containing one oxygen and four carbons. Its position 3 carbon connects to carbon 2 of the ethanol framework. That external carbon also bears the amino group and is bonded to the hydroxymethyl carbon, accounting for the amino and alcohol functions in the full name. The second oxygen is the alcohol oxygen rather than part of the ring. Neither the SMILES nor the InChI assigns stereochemistry, so the record should not be narrowed to a particular configuration without a controlling structure reference.
For a Rlavie technical inquiry, submit the complete name, CAS 889949-68-2, requested quantity, and a MOL or SDF file. The provided graph can be compared against PubChem CID 24729776, SMILES C1COCC1C(CO)N, and InChIKey BYHDMZFKZJRAOH-UHFFFAOYSA-N before request-specific information is reviewed. The structure file should preserve attachment through tetrahydrofuran position 3 and the amino group on ethanol carbon 2. A shortened label can obscure either position and may point to another amino alcohol even if some elemental counts appear similar.
