Biochem/physiol Actions

Water soluble condensing reagent. EDAC is generally utilized as a carboxyl activating agent for amide bonding with primary amines. In addition, it will react with phosphate groups. EDAC has been used in peptide synthesis; crosslinking proteins to nucleic acids; and preparation of immunoconjugates as examples. Typically, EDAC is utilized in the pH range 4.0-6.0 without buffers. In particular, amine and carboxylate buffers should be avoided.

  2. How do I get lot-specific information or a Certificate of Analysis?

    The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.

  3. Product No. E7750, N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, is listed as "commercial grade". What does that mean?

    It means that it is the grade of N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimide (EDAC) hydrochloride that was commercially available at the time we purchased it. This product is not assayed for purity. If you need a high purity EDAC, consider Product No. 03450.

  4. I understand that E7750, N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, can be used in peptide synthesis. Do you have a brochure on some other reagents that can be used for peptide synthesis?

    Yes.

  5. Can N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, Product E7750, be used as a peptide coupling reagent in alcoholic solvents? If so, do you have a reference?

    Yes. Nosaki, S., Effects of amounts of additives on peptide coupling mediated by a water-soluble carbodiimide in alcohols. J. Peptide Res., 54(2), 162-167 (1999). This paper describes using the E7750 along with 3,4-dihydro-3-hydroxy-4-oxo-1,2,3-benzotriazine (HOOBt) and 1-hydroxy-7-azabenzotriazole (HOAt) for enhancement of peptide coupling.

  6. What impurities might be present in N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N´-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, Product E7750?

    The two compounds most likely to appear in EDAC as trace impurities are 3-dimethylaminopropylamine and N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylurea as a result of synthesis (intermediate) and degradation (moisture or coupling reaction), respectively.
