Description

Potassium tricyanomethanide is a precursor used for the preparation of dicyano ketene aminals. It reacts with amines to prepare alkyl ammonium tricyanomethanide. Further, it is involved in the preparation of tricyanomethanide-bridged binuclear organometallic complexes such as Cp(dppe)FeC(CN)3 and Cp(PPh3)2RuC(CN)3. It is used as starting material utilized in the preparation of 5-Amino-3-bromo-1-(tert-butyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile, which undergoes sandmeyer reaction to get the corresponding diaminopyrazole, 5-amino-3-aryl-1-(tert-butyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
