Product Overview

2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione (also known as dipivaloylmethane) is a β-diketone compound with the molecular formula C₁₁H₂₀O₂ and a molecular weight of 184.28 g/mol. This colorless to pale yellow clear liquid is a valuable ligand for metal complexation in coordination chemistry and catalysis. The compound's structure features two ketone groups separated by a single carbon, with tert-butyl substituents at both ends, providing steric bulk and stabilizing metal complexes. It is widely used in the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks, as a precursor for volatile metal complexes in chemical vapor deposition, and as a ligand in various catalytic reactions.

Synthetic Process

2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione is synthesized through the following routes:

• Claisen condensation: Pinacolone is reacted with an ester in the presence of a strong base to form the β-diketone.

• Purification: The crude product is purified by distillation under reduced pressure.

Mechanism of Action / Application Principles

• Metal Complexation: Forms stable chelate complexes with various transition metals.

• Catalysis: Used as a ligand in transition metal-catalyzed reactions.

• Materials Science: Precursor for volatile metal complexes used in CVD and thin film deposition.

Quality Specifications

Each batch is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA).
