N,N-Dimethylformamide dineopentyl acetal helps in the lactonization of ω-hydroxyacids, giving lactones of up to 16-membered rings. It can be used to convert primary alcohols to alkylating agents for use in the alkylation of thiols. It is used in the esterification of Nα-9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonylamino acids. It was used in the synthesis of 1,3-dialkyl, benzyl and cyclohexyl barbiturate derivatives. It was used as reagent during the synthesis of L-serine and L-cystine stereospecifically labeled with deuterium at the β-position.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
