Description

Di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate (DTBA) is an organic compound that is used in organic synthesis as a dienophile. DTBA reacts with various electrophiles to form dihydro derivatives through a transfer mechanism, which can be monitored by the change in magnetic resonance spectroscopy signals. The reaction of DTBA with trifluoroacetic acid and hydrogen chloride forms the desired product, 3-amino-2,4,6-trichloropyridine. DTBA is also used for the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines from 2-aminobenzene derivatives and bromoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal. This process is catalyzed by palladium on carbon. DTBA is asymmetric at position C5 and C6 because it has two chiral centers: one at C3 and one at C5 or C6. The use of this reagent allows for the scalable
