Merck, 218227-25G, Cesium hydrogencarbonate

General description
Cesium hydrogencarbonate is used as a source of bicarbonate ions.
Application
Cesium hydrogencarbonate can be used as a base:In the Ni-catalyzed hydroarylation of unactivated alkenes with arylboronic acids to synthesize arylated alkanes.
To synthesize 5-phenylthiazolamines by coupling thiourea with phenylacetones, phenylacetophenones, and β-tetralone in the presence of CBrCl₃.
In the Pd-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl halides.
In the regioselective alkylation of 2,4-dihydroxybenzyaldehydes and 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenones using alkyl halides to synthesize 4-alkylated products.
It can also be used as a catalyst for the:Etherification of glycerol to oligomers.
Acetylation of primary alcohols and phenols to acetates using acetic anhydride.
