Abstract

•Rapid and robust GC–FID based method of CDI analysis is presented.•Protocol involves a quick and simple derivatization of CDI with methanol.•Method has been validated and is easily transferable.

N,N-Carbonyldiimidazole (CDI), a common synthetic reagent used in commercial scale pharmaceutical synthesis, is known to be sensitive to hydrolysis from ambient moisture. This liability demands a simple, robust analytical method to quantitatively determine reagent quality to ensure reproducible performance in chemical reactions. This work describes a protocol for a rapid GC–FID based analysis of CDI.
