4,4?-diiodobiphenyl was coupled with (trimethylsilyl) acetylene via a Sonogashira-Hagihara reaction to afford the (trimethylsilyl)ethynyl derivative. 4,4?-diiodobipheny enhanced the expression of the luciferase gene.
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.
Applications
4,4′-diiodobiphenyl was coupled with (trimethylsilyl) acetylene via a Sonogashira-Hagihara reaction to afford the (trimethylsilyl)ethynyl derivative. 4,4′-diiodobipheny enhanced the expression of the luciferase gene.
Solubility
Soluble in hot Toluene(very faint turbidity).
Notes
