Compound: 1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolium chloride
CAS#: 250285-32-6
MDL#: not listed
Background: An N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursor salt, known as IPr·HCl, widely used to generate bulky, electron-rich NHC ligands for transition metal catalysis. It is a key component in many palladium- and ruthenium-catalyzed cross-coupling and olefin metathesis catalyst systems.
Storage: Store at room temperature, under dry conditions.
