description Product Description
Ammonium formate is widely used in analytical chemistry as a mobile phase component in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS). It acts as a buffer and helps in the separation and detection of various compounds, particularly in proteomics and metabolomics studies.
In organic synthesis, it serves as a hydrogen donor in catalytic transfer hydrogenation reactions, reducing unsaturated compounds such as alkenes, alkynes, and nitro groups to their corresponding saturated forms.
It is also employed in the preparation of formic acid and as a reducing agent in the synthesis of nanoparticles, where it aids in controlling particle size and morphology.
Additionally, ammonium formate is used in the preservation of biological samples and as a component in certain types of deicing solutions due to its low toxicity and environmental impact.
