Description

trans-Bis(Dicyclohexylphenylphosphino)Nickel(II) Chloride is a high-purity organometallic complex widely used as a specialized catalyst precursor. This compound is valued for its ability to facilitate challenging cross-coupling and hydrogenation reactions under mild conditions. It is primarily sought by R&D laboratories and production facilities in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for synthesizing complex organic molecules.

Application

• Catalyst in Cross-Coupling Reactions: A key precursor for Buchwald-Hartwig amination and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, essential for creating carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical intermediates.
• Asymmetric Hydrogenation: Used in the synthesis of chiral compounds for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals.
• Oligomerization and Polymerization: Employed in the production of specialty polymers and elastomers with unique properties.
• Academic and Industrial R&D: Serves as a critical reagent for methodological development and exploring new catalytic transformations.
• Material Science: Facilitates the deposition of nickel-containing thin films and the synthesis of organometallic frameworks.

Quality Control

Every batch of trans-Bis(Dicyclohexylphenylphosphino)Nickel(II) Chloride is manufactured and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure consistency and high catalytic performance. Our standard grade typically meets a purity specification of ≥97% (by NMR or elemental analysis). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its moisture-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, the container must be kept sealed and handled in a glovebox or under an inert gas when opened.
