1,4-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane（Cat No.:R044626）, commonly known as DABCO, is a bicyclic organic compound containing two nitrogen atoms at the bridgehead positions of a rigid cage-like structure. It appears as a white crystalline solid and is highly soluble in polar solvents. DABCO is widely used as a base and nucleophilic catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly in reactions like the Baylis–Hillman and Michael additions. It also functions as a curing agent in epoxy resins and a catalyst in polyurethane foam production. Its strong basicity, thermal stability, and low volatility make it valuable in both laboratory and industrial applications.
