Bis[4-(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl)phenyl]phenylphosphine
Bis[4-(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl)phenyl]phenylphosphine (CAS 892154-91-5, C38H21F34P, molar mass 1154.49 g/mol) is a fluorous-tagged triarylphosphine ligand. Two para-perfluorodecyl ("ponytail") chains on a triphenylphosphine framework give it high fluorophilicity, making the phosphine and its metal complexes soluble in perfluorinated media. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade reagent of assay ≥ 95% (GC) for fluorous-phase homogeneous catalysis, ligand studies and specialty organometallic synthesis.

Fluorous-phase homogeneous catalysis
The two perfluoroalkyl ponytails partition this phosphine and its transition-metal complexes into the fluorous phase. This supports fluorous biphasic and thermomorphic catalysis, where catalyst and product separate cleanly on cooling, simplifying recovery and recycling.
Phosphine ligand for organometallic complexes
As an electron-rich triarylphosphine, it coordinates to palladium, rhodium, platinum and related metals. It is used to prepare Rf-tagged metal complexes for studies of cross-coupling, hydroformylation and other phosphine-supported transformations.
Catalyst recovery and recycling studies
Its fluorophilic character allows a metal catalyst to be extracted into a fluorous phase or onto fluorous supports after reaction. This is applied in research aimed at reducing metal contamination of products and reusing precious-metal catalysts.
Fluorous chemistry and ligand research
The compound serves as a defined building block for academic and industrial method development in fluorous synthesis, including comparisons of fluorous versus conventional triarylphosphine ligands.
