Kynuramine is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C₉H₁₂N₂O. It is the prototypical member of the class of biogenic amines known collectively as kynuramines. Kynuramine is produced by the decarboxylation of kynurenine and is a metabolite of tryptophan.

Kynuramine is an α-adrenoceptor inhibitor.

In biochemistry, kynuramine has been used as a substrate in assays used to measure amine oxidase activity.
