Applications of 1-Hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT)

  • HOBt in NMP is used as an effective additive in coupling reactions, where it helps suppress racemization and ensures higher purity of the final product.

  • It is suitable for application in both solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis.

  • Applied in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates and anticancer agents such as Ubenimex.

  • Plays a role in the synthesis of heterocycles, esters, and complex organic building blocks for high-value chemical applications.

Advantages of 1-Hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT)

  • Since the material is already in liquid form, workers are not exposed to the irritating or allergenic effects.

  • Using HOBT in solution helps avoid the risk of dust-related explosions that may occur with powdered HOBT.

  • Factories do not need to obtain special permits for the storage of flammable solids, as HOBT in NMP is already stabilized in liquid form.

  • The solution can directly replace HOBT powder in established production systems.
