Description : 1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (EDC, or EDAC) is a water-soluble carbodiimide, commonly used as a reagent for peptide coupling and amide bond formation in chemical and biochemical research. It is typically handled as its hydrochloride salt, appearing as a white solid. EDC is a versatile reagent, particularly useful for conjugating molecules like haptens to proteins and polypeptides. It is also used in the synthesis of amides and esters.

It is harmful and corrosive, requiring careful handling and appropriate safety precautions. Exposure can cause skin and eye irritation, and it is harmful if swallowed.

1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (EDC) is a water-soluble carbodiimide primarily used as a coupling reagent in chemical and biochemical research. It is particularly useful for forming amide bonds between carboxyl and amine groups, facilitating peptide synthesis and the conjugation of haptens to carrier proteins for vaccine development. EDC can also activate phosphate groups to form phosphomonoesters and phosphodiesters.
