Description

Tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine (TCEP) is a metal carbonyl compound that has been used as a reagent in organic chemistry. TCEP is an amphoteric molecule that can react with both acids and bases, and is stable in the pH range of 5 to 9. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting neutrophil migration. TCEP also has biological properties, such as its ability to inhibit the growth of Cryptococcus neoformans. TCEP binds to the mitochondrial membrane potential, which prevents proton leakage through the membrane and inhibits oxidative phosphorylation. TCEP binds strongly to minerals such as sodium salts, which can be used to isolate this molecule from reaction solutions. TCEP can be obtained by laser ablation or X-ray crystallography techniques.
