3-(Dimethylamino)-1-propylamine (DMAPA) is suitable reagent used in the following studies:
- As a cationic moiety to form the ionic liquid, 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylaminium formate ([DMAPA]FA) which is a potential reagent to extract protein from yeast cells.
- As an aminating agent in the palladium-catalyzed amination of aryl amines.
- In the derivatization of pullulan to form cationic pullulan.
- In the partial modification of poly(styrene-alt-maleic anhydride) to form N-substituted maleimide.
- As a test compound in the parallel synthesis of alkylamine lipidoids.
- To cleave the polyamides synthesized by solid phase methods on Boc-β-Ala-PAM resin.
It may be used in the following studies:
- Synthesis of (N,N-dialkylamino)alkyl-2-amino benzamide by reacting with isatoic anhydride.
- As a reagent for the anomeric deacetylation of protected sugars.
- Preparation of bioreducible copolymers used in gene delivery.
