Application

4-Phenylbenzylamine may be used in the synthesis of:
  • squaric acid asymmetric diamides of glycopeptide antibiotics
  • asymmetric diamides of daunomycin and carminomycin
  • N-(biphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-1-hydroxy-6-thioxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-2-carboxamide

4-Phenylbenzylamine may also be used in the synthesis of Gd3+ chelates of DOTA(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetate) type ligands.
