AdipoGen Di-2-picolylamine

Supplier: AdipoGen CDXB0134G025
Chemical. CAS 1539-42-0. Formula C12H13N3. MW 199.25. Synthetic Building block for synthesis. DPA is a secondary amine with two picolyl substituents. The compound is a tridentate ligand in coordination chemistry and commonly used to produce Zn-based chemosensors/probes, such as Zinpry. As a tridentate ligand this compound provides three nitrogen donors that affords good selectivity for Zn2 over biologically relevant metals such as Na, K, Mg2 and Ca2, and leaves coordination sites free for anion binding. The amino nitrogen of the DPA group is a good candidate as an electron donor in either photoinduced electron transfer or photoinduced charge transfer PET or PCT sensors. ZnII–DPA complexes are widely used in anion recognition and sensing.
