Tert-Butyl Isocyanate Applications
The physical and chemical properties of tert-butyl isocyanate make it an important intermediate in organic synthesis and can participate in different organic reactions. Specifically, its uses include:
Intermediate in organic synthesis: tert-butyl isocyanate can participate in the condensation reaction of amines and carboxylic acids, and is used in the synthesis of amino acids and peptides. It is also a reagent for the synthesis of indole compounds.
Pharmaceutical and pesticide production: It plays an important role in the production of medicines and pesticides. It can be used to prepare fungicides and anticancer drugs, showing its potential for application in the medical field.
- Modifying metal-organic frameworks: This can be done postsynthetically to create microporous urea-functionalized frameworks.
- Synthesizing dinuclear alumoxane: This is done from aluminum dihydride and contains terminal hydroxide.
