4'-Chloro-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine is widely utilized in the field of supramolecular chemistry, which is used to manufacture double helicates, dendrimers, micelles and metallo-supramolecular polymers. It is used to synthesize the mono- and bis-terpyridines. It is actively involved in Williamson type ether reactions alpha,μ-bishydroxy-functionalized poly(propylene oxide).
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. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
