Benzyltriphenylphosphine chloride Usage and Synthesis
Chemical Properties Benzyltriphenylphosphine chloride is a white to off-white powder that is highly soluble in water and polarizable solvents. It is a quaternary phosphonium salt used primarily in organic synthesis as a Wittig reagent and as a phase transfer catalyst in the production of fluoroelastomers and printing inks.
Uses Benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride is used as a reagent in the organic synthesis of a variety of compounds, including stable phosphorus ylides containing saturated oxygen heterocycles. It is also used in the synthesis of new substituted cis-stilbene derivatives with antibacterial activity.
Applications benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride can be used as a reactant in the synthesis of:
Platinum chloride tetrazole complex is formed by azidation.
Trans-stilbene and cinnamate are produced via Wittig olefination reaction.
Achiral N-hydroxyformamide inhibitors of ADAM-TS4 and ADAM-TS5 for the treatment of osteoarthritis.
Pentenes as light-driven molecular brakes.
Island structures used to form petroleum asphaltenes.
It is also used as a cross-linker in tubular natural halloysite/fluoroelastomer nanocomposites.
Cross-linking agent for tubular natural halloysite/fluoroelastomer nanocomposites

Reactants used for synthesis:
Platinum azide chlorotetrazole complex
Generation of trans-stilbene and cinnamate via Wittig olefination reaction
ADAM-TS4 and ADAM-TS5 Achiral N-Hydroxyformamide Inhibitors for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis
Pentenes as light-driven molecular brakes
Reactants used to form the archipelago structure of petroleum asphaltenes
Flammability and Explosiveness Unclassified
Purification method Washing with Et2O and crystallization from EtOH (six panels). It is hygroscopic and forms crystals with a molecule of H2O. [Michaelis & Soden Justus Liebigs Ann Chem 229 320 1885, Kr.hnke Chem Ber 83 291 1950, Beilstein 16 IV 994. ]
