Description

(S)-(-)-1,2-Bis(Diphenylphosphino)Propane is a high-value, chiral bidentate phosphine ligand essential for asymmetric catalysis. Its primary commercial value lies in its ability to induce high enantioselectivity in transition metal-catalyzed reactions, a critical factor for producing optically pure intermediates in regulated industries. This product is specifically needed by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical sectors for developing and scaling up efficient synthetic routes to chiral molecules.

Application

• As a chiral ligand in asymmetric hydrogenation reactions for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure pharmaceutical intermediates.
• Catalyst component for asymmetric C-C bond-forming reactions, such as cross-coupling and hydroformylation.
• Key reagent in the preparation of chiral catalysts for use in academic and industrial research.
• Enantioselective synthesis of flavors, fragrances, and other high-value specialty chemicals.
• Development of novel catalytic systems for green chemistry and sustainable manufacturing processes.

Quality Control

Our (S)-(-)-1,2-Bis(Diphenylphosphino)Propane is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chiral purity, which is critical for catalytic performance. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as chiral purity (enantiomeric excess), chemical purity, and identity confirmation. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated development pipelines.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) to prevent oxidation and degradation. The container should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials.
