Application

Triethylphosphine is generally used as a ligand in the organometallic chemistry. It can be used in:
  • Synthesis of the tetrahedrally coordinated L3Fe-Nx complex with a terminal nitride group.
  • Synthesis of (PEt3)2Ni(η2-C14H10), a source of the reactive Ni(PEt3)2 moiety.
  • Synthesis of dinuclear rhodium complexes with triethyllphosphane bridges.
