1,1,1-Tris(aminomethyl)ethane (TAME) is an organic compound with the formula CH₃C(CH₂NH₂)₃. It is a colorless liquid. It is classified as a polyamine tripodal ligand, i.e., capable of binding to metal ions through three sites and hence is a tridentate chelating ligand, occupying a face of the coordination polyhedron.
