7-Methyl-1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (mTBD) is a bicyclic strong guanidine base (pK_a = 25.43 in CH₃CN and pK_a = 17.9 in THF).^[3] mTBD, like 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene and other guanidine super bases, can be used as a catalyst in a variety of chemical reactions.^[4] It also reacts with CO₂,^[5] which could make it useful for carbon capture and storage.^[6]

When brought into contact with some acids, mTBD reacts to form an ionic liquid. Some of these ionic liquids can dissolve cellulose.^[7]
