Description

Dichloro[(R)-(+)-2,2'-Bis(Diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-Binaphthyl]Ruthenium (II) is a high-value, chiral ruthenium complex widely recognized as a highly efficient and enantioselective catalyst. This compound is critical for enabling asymmetric synthesis, a cornerstone of modern pharmaceutical and fine chemical manufacturing. It is primarily sought after by research institutions and industrial chemists developing novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), agrochemicals, and specialty materials where precise stereochemical control is paramount.

Application

• Asymmetric Hydrogenation: A premier catalyst for the enantioselective reduction of prochiral olefins, ketones, and imines to produce chiral alcohols and amines.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis: Key for constructing complex, single-enantiomer molecules used in drug discovery and development for APIs.
• Agrochemical Manufacturing: Used in the synthesis of chiral herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators with enhanced biological activity.
• Fine Chemical Production: Enables the production of high-value chiral flavors, fragrances, and specialty polymers.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A standard reagent in methodological development for new catalytic asymmetric transformations.
• Process Chemistry Optimization: Employed for scaling up enantioselective routes from laboratory to pilot and commercial production.
