Collection: Organocatalysts [Catalysis]

Organocatalysts [Catalysis] — gathers non-metal organic catalysts such as amino acids, prolinol silyl ether derivatives, chiral thioureas, and quaternary ammonium salts, which accelerate various organic reactions without involving a transition metal center in their catalytic mechanism.

These organocatalysts are used by synthetic chemists for asymmetric reactions such as aldol, Michael, and Mannich, where chiral catalysts direct the formation of stereocenters with high selectivity. Condensation catalysts such as ammonium carbonate salts are also used in condensation reactions and functional group transformations in synthetic organic chemistry at laboratory scale as well as in process development research.

Example products in this collection: TCI A0179 56-41-7 L-Alanine, TCI B5701 848821-76-1 (S)-alpha,alpha-Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-pyrrolidinemethanol, TCI A0177 338-69-2 D-Alanine, TCI B5882 948595-00-4 (R)-Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl](pyrrolidin-2-yl)methanol, TCI T4195 67123-97-1 H-DL-Tic-OH, TCI B6611 848821-61-4 (2S)-2-[Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl][(trimethylsilyl)oxy]methyl]pyrrolidine, TCI T3950 22426-79-5 Tetramethylammonium Methyl Carbonate, TCI B6804 620960-26-1 1-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-[(1R,2R)-2-(dimethylamino)cyclohexyl]thiourea.

Pay attention to the stereochemical configuration (R or S) of chiral catalysts, as it determines the direction of asymmetric induction, as well as enantiomeric purity and physical form (solid or solution) that match the reaction protocol. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
