Description

Tris(Methylcyclopentadienyl)Lanthanum (III), 98% (99.9%-La) (Reo) is a high-purity organolanthanum compound primarily used as a specialized catalyst and precursor in advanced materials synthesis. This product matters for its role in facilitating precise chemical transformations, particularly in polymerization and organic synthesis, where its high lanthanum content and defined structure are critical. It is essential for R&D and production in the fine chemical, polymer, and advanced materials industries, where reliable quality and consistent performance are paramount.

Application

• As a catalyst or co-catalyst in specialized polymerization reactions, including olefin polymerization.
• As a precursor material in the synthesis of other organometallic complexes and lanthanum-containing compounds.
• In materials science research for the development of novel lanthanide-based materials with unique optical or electronic properties.
• For thin film deposition processes (e.g., MOCVD) in the production of electronic or optical coatings.
• In organic synthesis as a Lewis acid catalyst for specific bond-forming reactions.
• Used in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new catalytic systems and reaction mechanisms.

Quality Control

Our Tris(Methylcyclopentadienyl)Lanthanum (III) is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product undergoes rigorous quality testing, including assay and impurity profile analysis, to meet the declared specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; therefore, containers must be kept sealed and handled in a moisture-free, inert environment to maintain stability and purity.
