18-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) may be used as catalyst for carboxylic acid esterification with dimethyl carbonate as base for dehalogenation of halogenated Diels-Alder adducts and the resulting activated 24-dienones were subjected to regio- and stereo-directed Michael additions using Yamamotos reagent (CH3Cu BF3) in a new synthesis of the ABCD ring system of Camptothecin. 18-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene may be used as an catalyst for the dissolution and activation of cellulose by a reversible reaction of its hydroxyl groups with carbon dioxide. This dissolved cellulose system can be derivatized to form cellulose mixed esters.

For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

18-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene is a bicyclic amidine base. It is non-nucleophilic sterically hindered tertiary amine base in organic chemistry. It is reported to be superior to amine catalyst in Baylis-Hillman reaction.It promotes the methylation reaction of phenols indoles and benzimidazoles with dimethyl carbonate under mild conditions.
