Product Information

• Name: 2-Chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine
• Synonyms: CDMT
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine, also known as CDMT, is a coupling reagent used for amide and ester formation which can be employed in a one-pot, one-step procedure. CDMT is an easily available stable solid, with good solubility in organic solvents, to be employed for synthesis in solution. High yields are achieved when CDMT is used to couple chiral and non-hindered amino acids in presence of a base such as N-methyl morpholine, with good retention of configuration. CDMT finds application in the activation of carboxylic acids for the synthesis of Weinreb amides and hydroxamates, in the lactamisation of ω-amino acids and in the chemical formation of ceramides in lipid bilayer by membrane fusion.
