The metabolism of N,N-dimethylformamide in the Sprague-Dawley rat has
been reinvestigated using NMR spectroscopy of urine. In particular, th
rough the use of N,N-dimethylformamide-d7 (DMF-d7) and H-2-NMR spectro
scopy, the principal metabolites of this compound have been confirmed
in a direct manner. The use of inverse-detected two-dimensional H-2-C-
13 correlation with C-13 decoupling aided metabolite identification th
rough the provision of C-13 chemical shifts.
