1,3-Di-sec-butyl carbodiimide

Description:

1,3-Di-sec-butyl carbodiimide (CAS 66006-67-5) is an organic compound characterized by its carbodiimide functional group, which features a central carbon atom double-bonded to two nitrogen atoms and connected to two sec-butyl groups. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in coupling reactions, where it acts as a dehydrating agent to facilitate the formation of amide bonds between carboxylic acids and amines. The presence of the bulky sec-butyl groups contributes to its steric hindrance, influencing its reactivity and selectivity in chemical reactions. 1,3-Di-sec-butyl carbodiimide is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran, but it is generally insoluble in water. Due to its reactivity, it should be handled with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this compound in a laboratory setting.
