General description

TEMPO (2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl) is a stable free radical commonly used as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. Copper/TEMPO has been utilized in the catalytic oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for catalytic efficiency. Find details here.

Application

TEMPO can be used:
  • As a catalytic oxidant for copper-catalyzed, greener oxidation of alcohols under aerobic conditions.
  • As a catalytic oxidant in the iodobenzene diacetae oxidation of nerol to neral.
  • For trapping the styrenyl radical generated from benzoyl peroxide during nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization of styrene.
  • In the carboxylation of water-resistant nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) films.

TEMPO(2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶氧基或2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶1-氧基)及其衍生物在有机氧化反应催化剂中可以作为稳定的硝酰基使用。TEMPO由Lebedev和Kazarnovskii于1960年发现,其具有的稳定自由基性质得益于其庞大的取代基团阻碍了自由基与其他分子之间发生反应。
