Product Information

• Name: Tris(4-fluorophenyl)phosphine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Tris(4-fluorophenyl)phosphine (TFPP) is a palladium complex that has been used in the synthesis of hydroxyl group-containing compounds. TFPP is toxic to mice, which may be due to its inhibition of body formation and production of cancer cells. TFPP has been shown to bind with lanthanum and phosphane in coordination geometry to form an octahedral complex. Topological analysis of the nmr spectra indicates that TFPP binds to benzyl groups through a phosphine ligand. Methods for synthesizing TFPP include the reaction of chloroform with phosphorus pentachloride, followed by reaction with 4-fluorophenol in the presence of mercury chloride.
