Description

4,4(5)-Dimyristoyldibenzo-18-Crown-6 is a lipophilic, functionalized crown ether derivative designed for selective metal ion complexation. This compound matters for its enhanced solubility in organic media and its ability to act as a highly effective phase-transfer catalyst or ionophore. It is primarily needed by researchers and manufacturers in the chemical synthesis, analytical chemistry, and materials science sectors for applications requiring the selective binding or transport of alkali and alkaline earth metal ions.

Application

• As a selective phase-transfer catalyst in organic synthesis reactions involving alkali metal salts.
• As a key component in ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) and sensors for potassium or other cations.
• As an extraction agent in liquid-liquid separation processes for metal ions.
• In the development of functional membranes for ion transport and separation technologies.
• As a complexing agent in academic and industrial research on supramolecular chemistry.
• For the purification and analysis of specific metal ions in analytical chemistry.
