General description

Lanthanum(III) nitrate hexahydrate is a transition metal catalyst widely used in many organic transformations such as chemoselective deprotection of acetonides, acetylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines with acetic anhydride, and synthesis of α-amino nitriles. It can also be used as a precursor in the preparation of lanthanum-based nanoparticles.

Application

Lanthanum(III) nitrate hexahydrate can be used as a catalyst in the synthesis of:
  • α-aminonitriles by a one-pot three-component coupling of the carbonyl compound, amine, and TMSCN.
  • Acetals and geminal diacetates (acylals)from aldehydes.
  • Bis(indolyl) methanes under solvent‐free conditions.
It can also be used as a starting material for the electrochemical synthesis of LaMnO3 thin films and solvothermal synthesis of doped lanthanide oxysulfide (La2O2S).

Features and Benefits

  • Thermal stability
  • Low toxicity
  • Mild reaction condition
  • Chemoselectivity
  • Low cost

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
