Product Name – (R)-(+)-2-Methyl-CBS-oxazaborolidine, 1M solution in toluene, AcroSeal® Quantity/Pack Size – 50ML Form – Liquid solution Grade – Reagent grade Application – Asymmetric catalysis, enantioselective reductions

Product Overview

(R)-(+)-2-Methyl-CBS-oxazaborolidine is a high-performance chiral catalyst supplied as a 1M solution in toluene, packaged under AcroSeal® technology to ensure maximum stability and purity. This oxazaborolidine derivative is widely recognized for its exceptional efficiency in asymmetric reductions, delivering high enantiomeric excess (ee) in synthetic applications. The toluene solvent system enhances solubility while maintaining catalyst reactivity, making it suitable for demanding laboratory protocols. The AcroSeal® packaging provides an inert atmosphere, preventing moisture contamination and degradation during storage. With its well-defined stereochemistry, this reagent enables precise control over chiral outcomes in organic synthesis. The 1M concentration offers optimal reactivity without requiring additional dilution, streamlining experimental workflows. As a reagent-grade solution, it meets stringent purity standards for reproducible results in advanced chemical research. The liquid form allows for easy dispensing and accurate dosing in microscale to preparative-scale reactions.

FAQs
