  • a patent application also owned by Novomer discloses a novel and highly efficient route to make TBD (Triazabicyclo [4.4.0] ' dec-9-ene) at large scale which is the typical precursor to MTBD. Alkylation of this material to provide MTBD and related analogs remains challenging at large scale.
  • the few examples reported in the literature generally rely on deprotonation with a strong base such as sodium hydride followed by treatment with alkyl iodide. Such methods are unsuitable for large scale production of MTBD since NaH is reactive and difficult to handle and methyl iodide is highly toxic.
