1,1’-Bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (Cat No.:R053861) is a bidentate phosphine ligand widely used in organometallic and coordination chemistry. Featuring a ferrocene backbone and two diphenylphosphino groups, it offers excellent chelating ability and thermal stability. DPPF is a key component in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki, Stille, and Heck couplings, where it enhances catalyst activity and selectivity. Its unique steric and electronic properties make it highly valuable for synthetic transformations in both academic and industrial settings. DPPF is supplied in high purity for use in research and development applications.
