Application

N,N-Dimethylhydrazine can react with:
  • β-Naphthol via radical amination to form 1-amino-2-naphthol.
  • 2-Chloro- and 2,2-dichloro-(bromo)vinyl ketones via regioselective heterocyclization to form 3-substituted 1-methyl(5-halo)pyrazoles.
  • Terminal alkynes in the presence of TpRuCl(PPh3)2 (Tp = tris(pyrazolyl)borate) to form nitriles.


N,N-Dimethylhydrazine along with ferric chloride hexahydrate forms an effective reduction system for:
  • Synthesizing DNA binding pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) imines via reductive cyclization of the corresponding nitro aldehyde.
  • Transforming a variety of nitroarenes and azido compounds into the corresponding anilines and amino compounds, respectively.

The red macroalga Agarophyton chilensis is a well-known producer of eicosanoids such as hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, but the alga produces almost no prostaglandins, unlike the closely related A. vermiculophyllum. This indicates that the related two algae would have different enzyme systems
