Does guanidine derivatize with the AccQ•Tag reagent kit? - WKB231531

Article number: 231531

ENVIRONMENT

  • AccQ•Tag
  • AccQ•Tag Ultra
  • AccQ•Fluor
  • Derivatization
  • Guanidine

ANSWER

No; the guanidine structure suggests that the derivatization may not be efficient. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The resonance reduces the overall electron density at a given point in the structure. Waters has not evaluated guanidine tagged with AccQ•Tag reagent, but the structure suggests that the tag will not be efficiently reacted to produce a stable derivatized compound.
