General description

1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolinium chloride is an NHC (N-heterocyclic carbene) ligand which can bind with metal pre-catalysts to form complexes that show high catalytic activity.

Application

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands

Precursor to an N-heterocyclic carbene catalysts used for:
  • A regioselective cycloadditon of terminal acetylenes with azides leading to 1,4-disubstitutedtriazoles. Internal acetylenes can also be used with this catalyst.[1]
  • Markovnikov-type hydration of terminal alkynes[2]
  • Hydrosilylation of ketones and cycloaddition of azides and alkynes[3]
  • Suzuki-Miyaura reactions[4]
  • Luminescence experiments[5]

The preparation of three series of [(NHC)CuX] complexes (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene, X = Cl, Br, or I) is reported. These syntheses are high yielding and only use readily available starting materials. The prepared complexes were spectroscopically and structurally characterized.

A new class of luminescent mononuclear and dinuclear N-heterocyclic carbene-containing gold(III) complexes has been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structures of most of the complexes have also been determined. Electrochemical studies reveal a ligand-centered reduction originated from the RC--N--CR

A versatile and highly efficient catalyst for the Huisgen cycloaddition reaction has been developed. Previously isolated or in situ generated azides yielded 1,2,3-triazoles with differently substituted alkynes in the presence of a [(NHC)CuBr] complex (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene). Extremely high

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
