A highly efficient catalyst for acylation reactions
4-Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) is a versatile nucleophilic catalyst used in acylation and esterification reactions. It can also be used in various organic transformations such as Baylis-Hillman reaction, Dakin-West reaction, protection of amines, C-acylation, silylation, and applications in natural product chemistry.
Application
4-Dimethylaminopyridine can be used as a catalyst for the following reactions:
Synthesis of 3,5-substituted 2,6-dicyanoanilines by reaction with malononitrile, aldehydes and β-nitroolefins.
Acylation of alcohols with anhydrides to synthesize the corresponding esters in the absence of auxiliary bases and solvents.
Baylis-Hillman reaction to generate carbon-carbon bonds by coupling of activated alkenes with aldehydes or ketones.
Efficient catalyst for acylation reactions.
