Reactant used for parallel synthesis of dihydroisoquinolines via silver and L-proline co-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction, preparation of novel PPARα/γ dual agonists for potential treatment of metabolic syndrome and IDDM, chemo selective and regioselective preparation of benzoyl indoles, 4,5-dihydrocyclopenta[c]quinolines by palladium-catalyzed ring-expansion reaction alkynes, using O2 as the oxidant and vinylindoles by hydroarylation of alkynes using indium bromide catalyst.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
