1-Amino-3-adamantanol (Cat No.: R046462) is a crystalline, cage-like organic compound derived from adamantane, featuring both amino and hydroxyl functional groups. With the molecular formula C₁₀H₁₇NO, it combines rigidity and hydrophobicity from the adamantane core with polar sites for hydrogen bonding. This duality makes it useful in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry, particularly in designing antiviral or neuroactive agents. Its structure provides metabolic stability and membrane permeability. The compound is also explored as a building block in drug delivery systems and molecular recognition applications.
