• Description: Applications Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene is a ligand that binds to a central metal ion (e.g. Titanium) to create a coordination complex. One of its complexes, Permethyltitanocene-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene, is a catalyst for the head-to-tail dimerization of 1-alkynes (e.g. 3-Penten-1-yne [P227430]). Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the packageReferences Horác?ek, M., et al.: Organometallics, 18, 3572 (1999); Varga, V., et al.: J.
