Potassium tert-butoxide(Cas 865-47-4) Usage

Chemical Description

Potassium tert-Butoxide, a tetrameric cubane-like cluster, is a chemical compound used as a non-nucleophilic and strong base in organic chemistry. This colourless solid is a strong base, which is useful in organic synthesis. The compound is often depicted as a salt, and it often behaves as such, but its ionization depends on the solvent.

Uses

Potassium tert-butoxide is used as a strong non-nucleophilic base in organic chemistry. It plays an active role in dehydrohalogenation reactions. It is also useful for greener amidation of esters. It serves as an intermediate in Mizoroki-Heck-type reactions.
