Tris(methylcyclopentadienyl)erbium(III) - Introduction

Tris(methylcyclopentadienyl)erbium is an organic erbium compound with the formula Er(C5H4CH3)3. It is a purple crystal, soluble in some non-polar solvents.

Tris(methylcyclopentadienyl)erbium is mainly used in organometallic chemistry and catalytic reactions. Due to the electronic structure of erbium, it exhibits high catalytic activity in some chemical reactions, especially for lower symmetry reaction taps, such as asymmetric synthesis and epoxidation reactions. In addition, it can also be used as a fluorescent probe to study chemical reactions and material properties.

The method for preparing Tris(methylcyclopentadienyl)erbium is obtained by reacting tris (chloromethylcyclopentadienyl) erbium with methyl lithium.

Regarding safety information, because Tris(methylcyclopentadienyl)erbium is an organic erbium compound, erbium has certain toxicity, so it is necessary to take appropriate safety measures when handling, such as wearing protective gloves and glasses, and handling in a well-ventilated area. At the same time, avoid contact with skin, inhalation or ingestion as much as possible. When handling or disposing of waste, it should be handled in accordance with local laws and regulations.
