Triisopropylamine is an organic compound. It is a tertiary amine, meaning that the nitrogen atom is connected to three isopropyl groups. Its steric bulk from the three isopropyl groups makes it less reactive toward nucleophiles and electrophiles compared to smaller amines. Due to its large and bulky structure, is known for having reduced nucleophilicity compared to smaller amines.
