Descripción

General description

Potassium carbonate is an inorganic base. It participates as a base in the palladacycle catalyzed Heck reaction of chlorobenzene with styrene. Addition of amino acids (glycine, sarcosine and proline) to K₂CO₃ (solvent) promotes the absorption of CO₂.

Application

Potassium carbonate has been used in the preparation of disulfonated bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone, a disulfonated diamine monomer.

It may be used:

• As a reagent in the synthesis of polysubstituted iodobenzene derivatives.
• As a base for the synthesis of high molecular weight homopolymers and copolymers derived from various bisphenols.
• As a base for the Suzuki coupling of aryl halides with aryl boronic acids.
• In the Heck reaction of styrene and bromobenzene.

Features and Benefits

• Increased efficiency – Eliminate time and effort of loosening hardened powders
• Safety – Avoid risks of using tools of force to break up clumps
• Economy – Faster preparation and solvation increase productivity and reduce costs
• Assured quality – Excellent, expert-tested quality with no anti-caking agents
• Flexible volumes – Available from research amounts to scale-up quantities
