Chemical compound

1,5-Diazabicyclonon-5-ene (DBN) is a chemical compound with the formula C7H12N2. It is an amidine base used in organic synthesis. A related compound with related functions is 1,8-diazabicycloundec-7-ene (DBU). The relatively complex nature of the formal names for DBU and DBN (hence the common use of acronyms) reflects the fact that these compounds are bicyclic and contain several functional groups.

Synthesis

DBN could be synthesized in the following manner, similarly to DBU:

Synthesis of DBN

The synthetic procedure starts with a Michael addition of 2-pyrrolidone to acrylonitrile, followed by hydrogenation, and finally dehydration.

Uses

As a base in organic synthesis

Similar to many other organic bases, DBN could be employed for dehydrohalogenation reactions, base-catalyzed rearrangement reactions, as well as Aldol condensation. Several examples are shown below:
