Merck, 562505-1KG, Cesium hydroxide monohydrate

General description
Cesium hydroxide is a strong base that can be used in organic synthesis, as a catalyst, and as an intermediate in the production of cesium compounds.
Application
Cesium hydroxide monohydrate can be used:

As a catalyst to prepare unsymmetrical Bis-allyl ethers via dimerization of Baylis-Hillman adducts.
As a dopant to fabricate vanadium oxide thin films as a hole extraction layer for perovskite solar cells.
As an initiator for ring opening polymerization of monosubstituted oxiranes.
As a promoter to synthesize secondary amines via chemoselective N-alkylation.

Features and Benefits
As a strong base ≥99.5% CsOH serves as an effective catalyst in organic reactions, enhancing reaction rates and selectivity without the risk of impurities affecting the outcomes.
≥99.5% CsOH is used in the synthesis of various cesium compounds, ensuring that contaminants do not interfere with chemical reactions, leading to higher yields and purity of the final products.
