Application

Cadaverine is a diamine that can be used in hetarylation with halopyridines (2-bromo, 2-iodo, and 3-iodo-pyridines) to synthesize N,N′-dipyridinyl diamine derivatives in the presence of CuI-2-isobutyrylcyclohexanone as a catalyst. It can also be used to synthesize a poly-imidazolium polymer with high thermal stability by reacting with acetic acid, pyruvaldehyde and formaldehyde by modified Debus-Radziszewski reaction.

We developed a new simple enzymatic assay method for measuring urinary polyamines (total amount of putrescine, spermidine, and cadaverine), using an acylpolyamine amidohydrolase and a putrescine oxidase. First conjugated polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and cadaverine) in urine were hydrolyzed by incubation
