Tris(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amine, 98+%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

Tris(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amine is used as an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) ligand for the creation of telechelic polymers. It is a tripodal polyamine ligand and forms complexes with group 1 metals, which is used in alkali-metal-mediated synthetic applications. Further, it is involved in the macrocyclization processes by reacting with tripodal esters in methanol to give tricyclic cryptands.

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.
