General description

1-Hydroxybenzotriazolehydrate (HOBt hydrate) is a hydrated form of HOBt. HOBt is a nucleophilic additive commonly used in synthetic chemistry. It is widely employed as acatalyst or stoichiometric additive to accelerate nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions, specifically amidations. Additionally, it is also used in the synthesis of peptides and nucleotides.

Application

1-Hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate is used as an additive:
  • In the oligonucleotide couplings.
  • In the preparation of poly(ethylene glycol)methyl ether-grafted CTS (mPEG-g-CTS).
1-Hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate can also be used:
  • In the solid phase peptide synthesis on TCNEO(tetracyanoethylene oxide)-modified graphite.
