Cyclobutylamine is an organic compound with the formula C₄H₇NH₂. It is a colorless, readily distillable liquid. It can be prepared from cyclobutanecarboxylic acid via the amide or by Curtius rearrangement.^[1] Cyclobutylamine is a member of the aminocycloalkanes, which also includes cyclopropylamine, cyclopentylamine, and cyclohexylamine.

Using "strain-relief reaction", substituted bicyclobutanes can be converted to a variety of N-substituted cyclobutylamines.^[3]
