Description

General description

Triethylamine may be used as a test volatile organic compound (VOC) in studies of the development of sensors for detecting VOCs.

Application

• Novel hybrid thiazoles, bis-thiazoles linked to azo-sulfamethoxazole: Synthesis, docking, and antimicrobial activity.: This study showcases the synthesis of hybrid thiazoles linked to azo-sulfamethoxazole, employing triethylamine in the reaction process, highlighting its role in antimicrobial applications (Salem et al., 2024).


• Spirocyclic rhodamine B benzoisothiazole derivative: a multi-stimuli fluorescent switch manifesting ethanol-responsiveness, photo responsiveness, and acidochromism.: This research demonstrates a spirocyclic rhodamine derivative acting as a multi-stimuli-responsive fluorescent switch, where triethylamine plays a critical role in the synthesis process (Battula et al., 2023).


• Para-Substituted Thiosemicarbazones as Cholinesterase Inhibitors: Synthesis, In Vitro Biological Evaluation, and In Silico Study.: This paper reports on the synthesis of para-substituted thiosemicarbazones where triethylamine is employed as a base, evaluating their potential as cholinesterase inhibitors (Khan et al., 2023).


• Separation and purification of quinolyridine alkaloids from seeds of Thermopsis lanceolata R. Br. by conventional and pH-zone-refining counter-current chromatography.: This study involves the use of triethylamine in the pH-zone-refining counter-current chromatography technique to separate and purify specific alkaloids, illustrating its utility in advanced separation methodologies (Ning et al., 2023).
