2,2-dimethyl-N-[2-methyl-2-(4-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]propan-1-amine

Specifically, it provides the unique nitroimidazole-substituted aminopropyl fragment, which is incorporated into the final complex molecule of Nirogacestat. The compound 2,2-dimethyl-N-[2-methyl-2-(4-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]propan-1-amine (or its N-nitroso derivative) serves as a crucial building block or intermediate in the synthesis of Nirogacestat, a drug for desmoid tumors, likely forming part of the imidazole-containing core structure or its precursor in patented synthetic routes.
