Product Overview

Tricyclohexylphosphine, supplied as a 1M solution in toluene under the AcroSeal® system, is a highly effective phosphine ligand designed for air-sensitive applications. The AcroSeal® packaging ensures long-term stability by preventing oxidation and moisture contamination, making it ideal for demanding synthetic procedures. This synthesis-grade reagent offers excellent solubility in organic solvents, facilitating homogeneous catalytic reactions. The bulky tricyclohexyl substituents provide unique steric properties that influence reaction selectivity and catalyst performance. The toluene solution format eliminates the need for weighing solid phosphines, offering precise molar concentrations for reproducible results. The solution maintains consistent quality throughout its shelf life when stored properly. This product is particularly valued in organometallic chemistry for its ability to stabilize metal centers and modify catalytic activity. The 100ML pack size provides sufficient quantity for multiple experimental runs while maintaining freshness through the sealed packaging system.

FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of this Tricyclohexylphosphine solution?

The AcroSeal® packaging extends shelf life significantly when unopened. Under proper storage conditions, the solution remains stable for at least 12 months from the date of manufacture. Always check the label for specific expiration dates.

2. Can this solution be used directly in reactions without further purification?

Yes, this synthesis-grade solution is provided at 1M concentration and is ready for direct use in most applications. The AcroSeal® system ensures minimal exposure to air and moisture during storage and handling.

3. What precautions should be taken when handling this toluene solution?

Handle in a well-ventilated fume hood due to toluene’s volatility. Use appropriate PPE including gloves and safety glasses. The solution should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent solvent evaporation and oxidation.

4. How does the AcroSeal® packaging benefit this product?

The AcroSeal® system provides an airtight, moisture-resistant barrier that preserves the phosphine’s reactivity. It features a septum cap that allows for syringe extraction without exposing the entire contents to air.

5. What storage conditions are recommended for this phosphine solution?

Store at room temperature in a dry, inert atmosphere. Keep the container tightly sealed and protected from light. Avoid temperature fluctuations that could affect the solution’s stability.
