Product Code. 11391688

Brand: Thermo Scientific Alfa Aesar 011048.06

Description

Potassium tetrachloroplatinate solution is used in the preparation of platinum (Pt) nanoparticles. Ligands like ammonia or triphenyl phosphine can able to replace the chloride ligands to afford various derivatives. The replacement by ammonia results in the preparation of cisplatin, which is used in the cancer treatment. Further, it is used as catalyst in the hydroarylation reaction.
