Collection: Lanthanum [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry]

Lanthanum [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry] — gathers lanthanum compounds in the form of oxides, hydroxides, chlorides, triflates, as well as beta-diketonate and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide complexes, illustrating the diversity of salts and coordination complexes of this rare earth metal. This group serves as a source of lanthanum(III) ions for various catalysis and inorganic synthesis applications.

Lanthanum(III) triflate and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide are widely used by synthetic organic chemists as Lewis acid catalysts in reactions such as aldol, Mukaiyama, or other carbon-carbon bond formation, because of their stability toward water. Meanwhile, lanthanum(III) oxide and chloride are more commonly used as precursors in the synthesis of ceramic materials and advanced inorganic complexes.

Example products in this collection: TCI L0235 1312-81-8 Lanthanum(III) Oxide, TCI C0079 32607-23-1 Chloranilic Acid Lanthanum(III) Salt Decahydrate, TCI T4230 14319-13-2 Tris(dipivaloylmethanato)lanthanum, TCI L0148 64424-12-0 Tris(2,4-pentanedionato)lanthanum(III) Hydrate, TCI T1293 52093-26-2 Lanthanum(III) Trifluoromethanesulfonate, TCI L0294 168106-26-1 Lanthanum(III) Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, TCI L0437 14507-19-8 Lanthanum(III) Hydroxide, TCI L0428 10099-58-8 Lanthanum(III) Chloride.

Pay attention to the anhydrous versus hydrate forms, because they affect reactivity as Lewis catalysts, and choose the accompanying ligand (triflate, diketonate, or imide) according to the intended reaction system. All products are genuine products of Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
