2-[4-(Aminomethyl)piperidin-1-yl]ethan-1-ol corresponds to CAS 21168-72-9 and PubChem CID 7330476. The verified molecular formula is C8H18N2O. PubChem provides SMILES C1CN(CCC1CN)CCO and InChIKey VKMYXOQRUXXUHE-UHFFFAOYSA-N. Its synonyms include the former “2-(4-(aminomethyl)piperidin-1-yl)ethanol” spelling with the same attachment points.

A saturated piperidine ring contains five carbons and one nitrogen. The ring nitrogen at position 1 bears a two-carbon chain ending in an alcohol, while ring carbon 4 bears an aminomethyl group. These substituents contribute three further carbons, a second nitrogen, and the only oxygen in C8H18N2O. The official graph is one neutral component; it contains neither a separate acid counterion nor an encoded stereocenter. “Ethanol” and “ethan-1-ol” describe the same terminal alcohol chain here. The bracketed H1 makes both the N-linked hydroxyethyl chain and the carbon-linked aminomethyl branch explicit, protecting the record from attachment-point ambiguity.

For an Rlavie inquiry, quote CAS 21168-72-9 and the complete preferred name. Supply the requested quantity and request-specific information relevant to identity matching. A MOL or SDF structure file may accompany the message; verify that the hydroxyethyl chain connects to ring nitrogen and the aminomethyl branch to carbon 4. CID 7330476 and InChIKey VKMYXOQRUXXUHE-UHFFFAOYSA-N give two independent checks before the request is assigned unambiguously to this precise piperidine entry.
