Product Information

• Name: Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride
• Synonyms: Dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II)
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride is an organometallic compound that has antibiotic activity. It is the active methylene in a number of drug molecules, including methyldopa, which is used to treat high blood pressure and postural hypotension. Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride also has potential use as a target enzyme for cross-coupling reactions. Cross-coupling reactions involve the coupling of organic compounds with organometallic reagents using palladium as a catalyst. The mechanism of this reaction involves the formation of a palladium-carbon bond by oxidative addition and reductive elimination, followed by the release of carbon monoxide. This process leads to the formation of an organometallic compound and an aryl halide. Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride can also be used in gel permeation chrom
