Usage

General Description

Propyltriphenylphosphonium iodide is an organic compound primarily used as a reagent in the field of organic chemistry. It has the molecular formula C21H22IP, appearing as white to off-white solid crystals. It serves as a phase transfer catalyst and can bring about reactions in organic and inorganic compounds that otherwise cannot be mixed. Additionally, Propyltriphenylphosphonium iodide is essential to numerous chemical synthesis processes such as the synthesis of ylides, which are intermediates in Wittig reactions. Due to its reactivity and role in synthesis, it should be stored under ambient temperatures in dry, well-ventilated areas.

Indolylalkyltriphenylphosphonium Analogues Are Membrane-Depolarizing Mycobactericidal Agents

Agents that selectively target the mycobacterial membrane could potentially shorten treatment time for tuberculosis, reduce relapse, and curtail emergence of resistant strains. The lipophilicity and extensive charge-delocalized state of the triphenylphosp

Enantioselective palladium-catalyzed addition of malonates to 3,3-difluoropropenes

Monofluoroalkenes bearing a malonate unit at the β position can be synthesized by the enantioselective addition of diesters to 3,3-difluoropropenes. The difference in reactivity regarding the geometry and the substituents of the alkene of the 3,3-difluoropropenes, as well as the alkyl groups of the malonates, was studied and limitations were identified. The reaction was also performed with different 3,3-difluoropropenes. Further synthetic transformations of a newly functionalized monofluoroalkene were also accomplished.

Synthesis and characterization of stilbene derivatives for possible incorporation as smart additives in polymers used as packaging films

Several series of stilbene derivatives for possible use as smart additives in polymers used as packaging films have been prepared and characterized. Differential scanning calorimetry was performed on some of the stilbenes in order to determine any liquid crystal properties. Those compounds which had multiple phase transitions were also shown to have two liquid crystalline phases according to optical microscopy.
