Application: Iron(III) acetylacetonate can be used as:     
• A iron precursor for the synthesis of Fe3O4/carbon composite fibers via forcespinning technique. This composite material used in the formation of high-performance anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.      
• A precursor for the synthesis of iron-containing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for the applications in rechargeable alkali-ion batteries.   
• An additive to enhance the efficiency of the N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) catalyst in the oxidation of cumene.     
• A solvent activation agent in the fabrication of polyamide membranes, which are used in reverse osmosis (RO) applications.     
• As a MOCVD precursor for highly crystalline (Zn,Fe)Fe2O4 films and magnetic property measurements of these films. Iron (III) acetylacetonate may be used as a precursor for the synthesis of water-soluble magnetite nanoparticles, which may find applications in magnetic hyperthermia treatment.      
• As a MOCVD precursor for highly crystalline (Zn,Fe)Fe2O4 films and magnetic property measurements of these films.

Application: MOCVD precursor for highly crystalline (Zn,Fe)Fe2O4 films and magnetic property measurements of these films.
General description: Iron(III) acetylacetonate, also known as tris(acetylacetonato)iron(III) or Fe(acac)3, is an coordination compound that is used as a precursor for the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles and thin films, which are important in magnetic materials, catalysis, and electronic applications. Additionally, it is also used as a catalyst in various organic reactions, including polymerization processes and cross-coupling reactions.
