General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives. This rare earth Lewis acid catalyst is used for Diels-Alder reactions, aldol condensations, Friedel-Crafts acylations, and carbonyl-compound transformations. Its high oxophilicity and water tolerance provide exceptional catalytic activity under greener aqueous or semi-aqueous conditions, aligning with Green Chemistry principle "Catalysis". Click here for more information.

Application

A water-tolerant Lewis acid catalyst recently used in one-pot syntheses of β-lactams, and in stereocontrolled radical and nucleophilic addition reactions. Catalyzes the synthesis of deoxypenostatin A in a novel, stereoselective, intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction.
Lewis acid catalyst used with a silylated chinchona alkaloid in an asymmetric synthesis of substituted β-lactams from an acid chloride and aryl imine. Also used to catalyze an aldehyde-ene reaction in a synthesis of the guaiane skeleton.
An important Lewis acid catalyst for a variety of synthetic reactions, including allylborations.
