Description

Description

Tetraphenylmethane is used to prepare a tetrapyridone tecton, which forms a diamondoid network with large internal chambers. It is also used in the preparation of 1-{4-[tris-(4-acetyl-phenyl)-methyl]-phenyl}-ethanone by Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction with acetyl chloride using aluminum chloride as catalyst.

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.
