Amides

<p>Applications Formamide is a compound that is used in biochemistry to prevent RNA samples from degradation due to RNAses. Formamide is also used as a plasticizer to prepare thermoplastic starch (TPS), a special type of starch that can be mixed with other synthetic polymers because of its unique ability to “flow”.<br>References Chomczynski, P.: Nuc.

<p>Stability Light Sensitive<br>Applications trans-2-Butenamide (cas# 625-37-6) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.<br></p>

<p>Applications N,O-Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide is used as a reagent in the synthesis of 4'-spirocyclic phosphono-nucleosides as potential inhibitors of hepatitis C virus NS5B polymerase. Also used as a reagent in the microwave-assisted synthesis of purine nucleosides as selective cholinesterase inhibitors.<br> Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package<br>References Dang, Q., et al.: Tetrahedron Lett., 55, 4407 (2014); Schwarz, S., et al.: Org.
