Cesium carbonate CAS#534-17-8
Cesium carbonate is an inorganic compound. It is a white solid under normal temperature and pressure. It is easily soluble in water and quickly absorbs moisture when placed in the air. Cesium carbonate aqueous solution is strongly alkaline and can react with acid to produce corresponding cesium salt and water, and release carbon dioxide. Cesium carbonate is easy to transform, can be used as a precursor of other cesium salts, and is a widely used cesium salt.

Product Application Of Cesium carbonate CAS#534-17-8
Cesium carbonate is widely utilized as a precursor for other cesium compounds. It acts as a base in sensitive organic reactions. It can be used as a base in C-C and C-N cross-coupling reactions such as SuzukiMiyaura, Heck, and Buchwald-Hartwig amination reactions. It finds use in solar cells as it increases the power conversion efficiency of cells through the transfer of electrons. It is also used in the production of special optical glasses, petroleum catalytic additives, special ceramics and in the sulfuric acid industry. It is useful in the N-alkylation (of sulfonamides, beta-lactams, indoles, heterocycles and several sensitive nitrogen compounds), carbamination of amines, carbonylation of alcohols and aerobic oxidation of alcohols into carbonyl compounds without polymeric by products. Promotes the efficient O-alkylation of alcohols to form mixed alkyl carbonates. |
