Di-tert-butylneopentylphosphine

CAS 60633-21-8C13H29PCatalysis & Inorganic

Di-tert-butylneopentylphosphine (CAS: 60633-21-8; Formula: C13H29P; MW: 216.34 g/mol) is a highly reactive phosphine compound. Its bulky tert-butyl and neopentyl groups make it a valuable ligand in organometallic chemistry. Primarily used as a reactant for generating highly active palladium complexes and in the synthesis of organometallic compounds of iridium and rhodium, it also serves as a ligand for cross-coupling reactions involving aryl bromides and chlorides.
