Colorless to pale yellow liquid

Activating reagent used in solid phase peptide synthesis.

This product is mainly used in amikacin, glutathione dehydrants, as well as in synthesis of acid anhydride, aldehyde, ketone, isocyanate; when it is used as dehydrating condensing agent, it reacts to dicyclohexylurea through short-time reaction under normal temperature. This product can also be used in synthesis of peptide and nucleic acid. It is easy to use this product to react with compound of free carboxy and amino-group into peptide. This product is widely used in medical, health, make-up and biological products, and other synthetic fields.

Used as an antineoplastic. Used in the treatment of malignant melanoma and sarcomas

ChEBI: A carbodiimide compound having an isopropyl substituent on both nitrogen atoms.

Diisopropyl carbodiimide is used in peptide chemistry as a coupling reagent. It is very toxic and caused contact dermatitis in a laboratory worker.

Add N, N'diisopropylthiourea to the autoclave and use xylene as the solvent. The mass ratio of N, N'diisopropylthiourea to xylene solvent is 2:1. Add Sb2O4 catalyst (the amount of the catalyst is 1% of the total material), and oxygen is introduced. The temperature is increased to 115°C under a pressure of 8MPa for 4h, then lowered. Suction filtration at 15°C, decolorization, and vacuum distillation were used to obtain N, N'-Diisopropylcarbodiimide. The yield is 94.55%, and the purity is 99.55%.
