Dipropylamine is an organic compound with the formula (CH₃CH₂CH₂)₂NH. It is classified as a secondary amine. It is a colorless liquid with a "fishy" odor. It is a precursor to various herbicides such as trifluralin, oryzalin, and vernolate.^[3]

Trifluralin, an herbicide containing a dipropylamino group

Occurrence

Dipropylamine occurs in tobacco leaves and in some industrial wastes.^[4]

Safety

Dipropylamine is flammable, toxic, and corrosive. Exposure can cause excitement followed by depression, internal bleeding, dystrophy, and severe irritation.^[2]
