REFERENCES

  • More convenient source of formamidine than the corresponding chloride in that it is non-hygroscopic and, being the salt of a weaker acid, can often be used in synthesis without the need to liberate the free base.
  • Widely used in heterocyclic syntheses, for example of pyrimidine and imidazole derivatives.
