Amide Formation: Choosing the Safer Carbodiimide in Combination with OxymaPure to Avoid HCN Release


Abstract:

It has been reported that DIC can react with OxymaPure to render an oxadiazole compound with the concomitant formation of HCN. Here we demonstrate that this reaction is not a feature of all carbodiimides but rather depends on the alkyl structure that flanks the two N atoms of the carbodiimide. Furthermore, we have identified two carbodiimides, TBEC and EDC·HCl, whose reaction with OxymaPure is exempt from HCN formation.
