Description

Ytterbium Tris[3-(Heptafluoropropylhydroxymethylene)-(-)-Camphorate] is a high-purity, chiral lanthanide complex primarily used as a shift reagent in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Its core value lies in its ability to induce significant chemical shift differences in the spectra of enantiomers, enabling the analysis and quantification of chiral compounds. This product is essential for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require precise stereochemical analysis.

Application

• Chiral NMR Shift Reagent: For the determination of enantiomeric purity and absolute configuration of organic molecules in solution-state NMR analysis.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Used in the development and quality control of chiral active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to ensure stereochemical integrity.
• Asymmetric Synthesis Monitoring: Enables real-time monitoring of enantioselective reactions and catalyst screening processes.
• Academic Research: A critical tool in university and institutional labs for structural elucidation and stereochemistry studies in organic and inorganic chemistry.
• Agrochemical Analysis: Applied in the analysis of chiral pesticides and herbicides to study their stereoselective environmental behavior and efficacy.
• Material Science: Potential use in the study of chiral dopants and the structural analysis of advanced polymeric materials.

Quality Control

Our Ytterbium Tris[3-(Heptafluoropropylhydroxymethylene)-(-)-Camphorate] is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high optical purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR shift efficacy validation and chiral purity assessment. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, enantiomeric excess, and performance data is provided with every shipment to support your research and compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere.
