Abbreviation: Pd(dppf)Cl?
CAS Number: 72287-26-4
Molecular Formula: C??H??Cl?FeP?Pd
Molecular Weight: 731.70
Synonyms: Dichloro[1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene]palladium(II), Pd(dppf) dichloride
Product Category: Noble metal catalyst, cross-coupling reaction catalyst, organometallic reagent, pharmaceutical synthetic catalyst
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Indicators
- Appearance: Orange-red crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Soluble in dichloromethane, chloroform, THF, dioxane; slightly soluble in toluene; insoluble in water, petroleum ether
- Melting Point: Decomposes at 275–280 °C
- Density (20 °C): 1.45 g/cm3
- Hygroscopicity: Slightly hygroscopic under high humidity air
- Aqueous Stability: Unstable in water, prone to hydrolysis and palladium precipitation
Chemical Characteristics
- Molecular Structure: Ferrocene backbone coordinated with diphenylphosphine ligands and palladium dichloride, classic bidentate phosphine palladium complex
- Catalytic Function: Highly efficient catalyst for Suzuki, Heck, Sonogashira, Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reactions
- Oxidation Sensitivity: Phosphine ligands oxidize easily under air and light, reducing catalytic activity
- Photostability: Light-sensitive; long-term UV exposure triggers ligand dissociation and product darkening
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 120 °C; violent decomposition above melting point, releasing toxic chloride and organophosphorus fumes
- Chemical Compatibility: Compatible with anhydrous inert organic solvents; incompatible with water, air, strong oxidants, reducing agents
3. Main Application Fields
- Core Application: Cross-Coupling Catalyst for Pharmaceutical Synthesis
Universal palladium catalyst for manufacturing small-molecule APIs, widely used to construct carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bonds in heterocyclic drug intermediates - Fine Chemical & Material Synthesis Catalyst
Catalyst for organic electronic materials, liquid crystal monomers and polymer monomer coupling reactions - Laboratory Organic Chemistry Research Reagent
Standard noble metal catalyst for coupling reaction methodology research - Industrial Custom Catalysis Auxiliary
Custom catalytic reagent for pilot and commercial production of agrochemical intermediates
4. Platform Category & Product Group Selection Guide
1) Domestic B2B Platform Category
Recommended Path: Catalysts and Auxiliaries / Catalysts
Reason: It belongs to precious metal organophosphorus coupling catalyst, the most matching precise classification with high exposure.
2) English Product Group Dropdown Options
Recommended Selection: Basic Organic Chemicals
Do not select Pharmaceutical Chemicals; it is a universal industrial catalyst rather than exclusive human drug bulk raw material.
3. Standard Foreign Trade Packaging Specification
1g/5g aluminum foil vacuum bag for lab samples; 25kg fiber drum lined with double PE inner bags for bulk catalyst orders; nitrogen-sealed anti-oxidation packaging, customized specifications available
