Description

Methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide is used for methylenation through the Wittig reaction. It is utilized in the synthesis of an enyne and 9-isopropenyl -phenanthrene by using sodium amide as reagent. It is a lipophilic molecule and used to deliver molecules to specific cell components. Further, it acts as an antineoplastic agent.

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.
