Collection: Osmium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry]
Osmium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry] — covers osmium compounds such as osmium tetroxide, osmium(III) chloride, osmium(IV) oxide, and osmium catalysts supported on magnetic materials, with a main focus on osmium's role as a selective oxidizing agent in organic synthesis.
Osmium tetroxide is widely used in the dihydroxylation of alkenes to vicinal diols, including the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation variant that is important for stereoselective synthesis chemists, as well as in the oxidative cleavage of double bonds to aldehydes or ketones. Osmium catalysts supported on magnetite facilitate separation of the catalyst after the reaction, making them suitable for repeated oxidation processes at laboratory scale.
Product examples in this collection: TCI O0651 13444-93-4 Osmium(III) Chloride, TCI O0308 20816-12-0 Osmium Tetroxide (4% in Water), TCI O0650 12036-02-1 Osmium(IV) Oxide, TCI O0414 Osmium Catalyst supported on Magnetite (0.07-0.09mmol/g).
Consider the chosen form of osmium: a dilute osmium tetroxide solution for precise stoichiometric control, or solid forms and supported catalysts for ease of handling and post-reaction separation. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
