Description

Application

N,N-Dimethylhydrazine can react with:

• β-Naphthol via radical amination to form 1-amino-2-naphthol.
• 2-Chloro- and 2,2-dichloro-(bromo)vinyl ketones via regioselective heterocyclization to form 3-substituted 1-methyl(5-halo)pyrazoles.
• Terminal alkynes in the presence of TpRuCl(PPh₃)₂ (Tp = tris(pyrazolyl)borate) to form nitriles.

N,N-Dimethylhydrazine along with ferric chloride hexahydrate forms an effective reduction system for:

• Synthesizing DNA binding pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) imines via reductive cyclization of the corresponding nitro aldehyde.
• Transforming a variety of nitroarenes and azido compounds into the corresponding anilines and amino compounds, respectively.

Biochem/physiol Actions
