DESCRIPTION
Application
- Nitrous oxide allows selective oxygen atom transfer reactions while minimizing the risk of over-oxidation.[1] Therefore, it is used to oxidize disilenes, silanimines, silaethenes and silylenes.[1]
- Along with Ru-porphyrin catalyst, it can be used in the epoxidation of olefins and steroids.[2]
- It can be used as an oxidant in for the metal-catalyzed oxidative homo- and cross-coupling of Grignard reagents.[3]
- N2O can also be used as a nitrogen-dopant source to synthesize p-type zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) via vapor-liquid-solid growth.[4]
Packaging
227 g in steel cylinder
