''N'',''N′''-Diisopropylcarbodiimide is a carbodiimide used in peptide synthesis. As a liquid, it is easier to handle than the commonly used ''N'',''N′''-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, a waxy solid. In addition, ''N'',''N′''-diisopropylurea, its byproduct in many chemical reactions, is soluble in most organic solvents, a property that facilitates
work-up In chemistry, work-up refers to the series of manipulations required to isolate and purify the product(s) of a chemical reaction. Typically, these manipulations may include: * quenching a reaction to deactivate any unreacted reagents. * coolin ...
