Description

Chloro{(S)-(-)-2,2'-bis[di(3,5-xylyl)phosphino]-1,1'-binaphthyl}[(2S)-(+)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl-kC)-3-methyl-1,2-butanediamine]ruthenium(II) (S)-RUCY XylBINAP is a highly specialized, chiral ruthenium complex designed for asymmetric catalysis. This compound matters because it serves as a precise and efficient catalyst for enantioselective hydrogenation and other key synthetic transformations, enabling the production of single-isomer intermediates. It is essential for R&D and production chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries who require high enantiomeric purity in their products.

Application

• Asymmetric Hydrogenation Catalyst: For the enantioselective reduction of prochiral olefins, ketones, and imines to produce chiral alcohols and amines.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis: Critical in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) requiring high enantiomeric excess (ee), such as chiral drug candidates.
• Agrochemical Manufacturing: Used in the synthesis of enantiomerically pure herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Fine Chemical Production: Enables the creation of complex, chiral molecules for flavors, fragrances, and advanced materials.
• Academic and Industrial R&D: A valuable tool for method development and exploring new asymmetric catalytic reactions in laboratory settings.
• Process Chemistry Optimization: Employed for scaling up efficient and selective synthetic routes in pilot plants and manufacturing.

Quality Control

Our high-purity chiral catalyst is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and optimal catalytic performance. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral assay, to verify identity and enantiomeric integrity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided to support your quality and regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) at 2-8°C to maintain stability and prevent decomposition. This material is moisture-sensitive and easily oxidized; ensure containers are sealed immediately after use to exclude air and humidity.
