Description

Tris(trans-1,2-Bis(4-(Trifluoromethyl)Phenyl)Ethene)Nickel(0) is a specialized organometallic complex featuring a nickel(0) center coordinated by three unique, electron-deficient alkene ligands. This compound matters as a highly active and selective catalyst precursor for cross-coupling and C-H functionalization reactions, enabling the synthesis of complex fluorinated organic molecules. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for constructing challenging carbon-carbon bonds under mild conditions. CAS NO 2413906-36-0.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis: As a catalyst for key C-C bond-forming steps in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those containing trifluoromethyl groups.
• Agrochemical Manufacturing: Enabling the synthesis of novel, fluorinated herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides with enhanced properties.
• Advanced Material Development: Catalyzing polymerization or functionalization reactions to create specialty polymers, liquid crystals, or organic electronic materials.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Serving as a critical reagent in methodological development for new nickel-catalyzed organic transformations.
• Fine Chemical Production: Facilitating the scalable, efficient synthesis of complex, high-value fluorinated aromatic compounds.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Specifically effective for Suzuki-Miyaura, Negishi, and Kumada-type couplings involving sensitive or sterically hindered substrates.
