Description

Tributylphosphine (CAS 998-40-3) is a highly versatile organophosphorus compound with the molecular formula C12H27P and IUPAC name tributylphosphane. This clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid is widely utilized in organic synthesis, catalysis, and material science due to its strong nucleophilic and reducing properties. With a boiling point of approximately 240°C and a density of 0.82 g/cm3, it is soluble in common organic solvents such as ether, benzene, and alcohol but insoluble in water. Tributylphosphine is packaged under inert gas to ensure stability and purity, making it ideal for sensitive reactions like palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings (e.g., Stille, Suzuki) and as a ligand in transition metal complexes. Its high reactivity also lends itself to applications in polymer chemistry and semiconductor manufacturing. Store in a cool, dry place away from oxidizers and moisture to maintain optimal performance.

Application

Tributylphosphine is a key reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura and Stille couplings. It serves as an effective reducing agent for converting metal precursors into nanoparticles and as a stabilizing ligand for catalytic systems. In polymer chemistry, it is used to initiate polymerization and modify polymer properties. Additionally, its role in semiconductor processing includes passivation and doping applications.
