NN DIISOPROPYL EHTHYLAMINE FOR SYNTHESIS

Description

N,N-Diisopropylethylamine may be used in the synthesis of mannosylated ovalbumin peptides. Proton scavenger used in peptide coupling, enolboration, Pd(0)-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of allyl phosphates and acetates, and as a catalyst in vinyl sulfone synthesis.

Application
Application

It is commonly used as the hindered base in amide coupling reactions between a carboxylic acid (typically activated, for example, as an acid chloride, as illustrated below) and a nucleophilic amine. As DIPEA is hindered and poorly nucleophilic, it does not compete with the nucleophilic amine in the coupling reaction.
