Collection: Cerium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry]

Cerium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry] — a collection of cerium (Ce) compounds in various oxidation states and ligand forms, ranging from simple salts such as chloride and fluoride to triflate and bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide complexes. This rare earth element is known for its ability to act as a Lewis acid and as a redox center in various inorganic chemical transformations and catalysis.

The Cerium category is widely used as a Lewis acid catalyst in Mukaiyama aldol, Friedel-Crafts, and various other carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions, as well as an oxidation reagent in organic synthesis and materials chemistry. Compounds such as cerium(III) triflate and cerium(IV) hydroxide are also used in functional materials research, heterogeneous catalysts, and coordination chemistry studies of rare earth elements by synthesis and inorganic chemistry researchers.

Example products in this collection: TCI T1918 76089-77-5 Cerium(III) Trifluoromethanesulfonate, TCI C2058 7790-86-5 Cerium(III) Chloride Anhydrous, TCI C3980 7758-88-5 Cerium(III) Fluoride, TCI C2974 206996-60-3 Cerium(III) Acetate Hydrate, TCI C3857 12014-56-1 Cerium(IV) Hydroxide, TCI C3516 1046099-39-1 Cerium(III) Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide.

Selection depends on the oxidation state (Ce(III) vs Ce(IV)), the type of ligand or counter-ion (triflate, imide, halide), and the physical form of the compound (anhydrous or hydrate), which affect reactivity and solubility in organic solvents. All products are genuine products of Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on the page of each item.
