Esterification/Amidation

Triazine-type

Triazine condensing agents such as DMT-MM are one of attractive condensing agents. The advantage of this reagent is that low alcohol or water can be used as a solvent for esterification or amidation reaction. It is a very useful for the reaction of water or lower alcohol soluble material. Since by-product that is generated from DMT-MM after reaction is water-soluble, they can be easily removed by washing at extraction step.
