Produktinformation

• Name: Mesitylcopper(I)
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Mesitylcopper(I) is a coordination complex that is useful for asymmetric synthesis. It can be prepared by the reaction of magnesium with mesitylene (1). Mesitylcopper(I) has been used in the preparation of β-unsaturated ketones, such as cyclopentenones, and phenyl groups. The compound's potential use arises from its ability to act as a catalyst in the Suzuki coupling reaction. This process involves the cross-coupling of organometallic reagents with olefins, which are compounds containing double bonds and no hydrogen atoms. Mesitylcopper(I) also has promising applications in X-ray absorption spectroscopy and structural analysis.
