Application

1,3-Dimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone (DMPU) can be used as a:
  • Solvent in the synthesis of 1-aryl-3,4,5-substituted pyrazoles by cyclocondensation of 1,3-diketones with arylhydrazine hydrochlorides.
  • Chelating solvent in the trifluoromethylation of activated and non-activated halogenated double bonds.
  • Ligand in ortho-alkylation of secondary benzamide catalyzed by cobalt.

Packaging

Other Notes

Aprotic, dipolar solvent, which is an excellent replacement of the carcinogenic HMPA as cosolvent for highly reactive nucleophiles and bases. High Z-selectivity in enolate formation; DMPU was shown to be non-mutagenic and safe.
