| 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. |
