Platinum(IV) oxide ChemBeads

Platinum(IV) oxide has been used for the reduction of citernyl bromide to form (S)-3,7-imethyloctylbromide.Catalyst for hydrogenation of various functional groups with minimal hydrogenolysis problems; used as dehydrogenation catalyst; used for selective oxidation of primary alcohols.Catalyst for: Hydrohydrazination reactions, Oxidation of sugars, Low-temperature oxidation of carbon monoxide, Oxygen reduction reaction, Hydrogenation reactions, Hydrogenolysis of the cyclopropyl group into an isopropyl group, Hydroxycyclopropanation reactions.


ChemBeads are chemical coated glass beads. ChemBeads offer improved flowability and chemical uniformity perfect for automated solid dispensing and high-throughput experimentation. The method of creating ChemBeads uses no other chemicals or surfactants allowing the user to accurately dispense sub-milligram amounts of chemical.
