N, N’-di-tert-butyl ethylenediamine and the open-chain which is derived for containing two amino functional groups with tert-butyl substitution. The steric clash provided by the tert-butyl groups will improve reaction selectivity by maintaining excellent amino-group reactivity. It does offer moderate alkalinity, strong coordination ability, and stable chemical properties. The compound will form a stable complex with different metals and is capable of participating in condensation, addition, and salt-formation reactions. The properties make it useful across chemical synthesis, industrial formulations, pharmaceutical development, and coordination chemistry.
