Description

Ferric acetylacetonate, often abbreviated Fe(acac)3, is a ferric coordination complex featuring acetylacetonate (acac) ligands. Fe(acac)3 has been examined as a precatalyst and reagent in organic chemistry. Can be used as a catalyst in preparation, degradation, and calcification of biodegradable polyurethane foams for bone graft substitutes. Thermal decomposition of Fe(acac)(3) in triethylene glycol has being used in the synthesis of water-stable magnetite nanoparticles for clinical MRI and magnetic hyperthermia applications.
