Description

Bis[2-(Dicyclohexylphosphino)ethyl]amine, Min. 97% is a high-purity, tridentate phosphine ligand featuring a central amine donor, which is essential for constructing sophisticated catalytic systems. This compound matters because it enables highly efficient and selective transition metal catalysis, particularly in challenging cross-coupling and hydrogenation reactions. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for developing new synthetic routes and optimizing production processes.

Application

• As a key ligand in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki-Miyaura, Buchwald-Hartwig amination).
• For the development of high-performance catalysts used in asymmetric hydrogenation and hydroformylation.
• In the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and complex organic intermediates.
• As a stabilizing agent for low-oxidation-state metal complexes in organometallic chemistry.
• For academic and industrial research into new catalytic methodologies and material science.
• In the preparation of tailored catalyst systems for C-H activation and other bond-forming transformations.
