3-Aminoazepan-2-one（Cat No.:L038813）is a seven-membered lactam (cyclic amide) with an amino group at the 3-position, making it a versatile heterocyclic compound in organic and medicinal chemistry. The azepan-2-one ring provides a flexible backbone similar to that of β-lactams but with reduced ring strain, enhancing stability. The presence of both an amide and a primary amine functional group allows for diverse derivatization, such as peptide bond formation or heterocycle expansion. It serves as a key building block in the synthesis of peptidomimetics, pharmaceuticals, and bioactive compounds targeting neurological or antimicrobial pathways.
