Applications

  • Strong base precursor: Used in organic synthesis and to prepare LDA (lithium diisopropylamide)
  • Organic nucleophile : Useful in alkylation, condensation, and as a rubber vulcanization accelerator.
  • Agricultural intermediate : In synthesis of herbicides (e.g. diallate).
  • Lab solvent/base: Good for deprotonations, due to steric hindrance and basicity.
