Description

Reagent for the reduction of carbonyl compounds. Used in alcoholysis and ester exchange reactions. Also used in synthesis of higher alkoxides, chelates, and acrylates. Aluminum isopropoxide is a useful reagent in the synthesis of alkoxides, chelates and acrylates. It acts as an intermediate of pharmaceutical products like isophytol, testosterone, progesterone and ethisterone. Also used as the material of aluminate coupling agent. It is also used in alcoholysis and ester exchange reactions. In Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reduction, it is used as a catalyst for the reduction of ketones and aldehydes to their corresponding alcohols. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
