Collection: Ytterbium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry]
Ytterbium [Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry] — compiles ytterbium rare earth metal compounds in various forms, from oxides and alkoxides to triflate salts, which act as Lewis acid catalysts and raw materials for inorganic chemical synthesis as well as functional materials.
Ytterbium(III) triflate is widely used by synthetic chemists as a Lewis acid catalyst in Mukaiyama aldol, Diels-Alder, and various carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions that require mild conditions and are water-tolerant. Ytterbium(III) isopropoxide is used as a metal alkoxide precursor in the synthesis of materials and coordination compounds, while ytterbium(III) oxide serves as a raw material for functional ceramics and inorganic materials research.
Example products in this collection: TCI Y0010 6742-69-4 Ytterbium(III) Isopropoxide, TCI T1610 54761-04-5 Ytterbium(III) Trifluoromethanesulfonate, TCI Y0008 1314-37-0 Ytterbium(III) Oxide.
Pay attention to the compound form (oxide, alkoxide, or triflate) according to the reaction requirements, the purity grade of the rare earth metal, and the sensitivity to moisture of alkoxide forms that readily hydrolyze in open air. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
