Product Overview
Nonylmagnesium bromide is a highly reactive 1M solution in diethyl ether, packaged under AcroSeal® technology to ensure moisture-free storage and extended shelf life. This Grignard reagent is synthesized under stringent conditions to maintain a 99% assay purity, making it a reliable choice for demanding organic synthesis applications. The ether solvent enhances solubility and reactivity, while the sealed packaging prevents degradation from atmospheric exposure. Designed for precision, this reagent facilitates carbon-carbon bond formation with predictable yields, minimizing side reactions. Its stability in ether allows for controlled addition in multi-step syntheses, reducing the need for excessive purification. The reagent’s consistent performance is validated through rigorous quality checks, ensuring reproducibility in research and development workflows. Compatibility with standard glassware and inert atmospheres further simplifies handling, while the 100ML pack size balances convenience with cost-efficiency for small-to-medium scale experiments.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of Nonylmagnesium bromide in diethyl ether?
The solution remains stable for 12 months when stored unopened at 2–8°C under an inert atmosphere. Once opened, use within 3 months for optimal reactivity.
2. Can this reagent be used with THF as a co-solvent?
Yes, it is compatible with anhydrous THF, but gradual addition is recommended to avoid exothermic reactions. Pre-cooling the mixture improves control.
3. What precautions are needed for handling this Grignard reagent?
Work under nitrogen or argon in a fume hood. Avoid moisture contact, as it decomposes violently. Use flame-dried glassware and dry solvents.
4. Is there a lower-concentration alternative available?
For less reactive applications, 0.5M solutions in ether or THF can be prepared by dilution, though this may reduce reaction rates.
5. How should unused reagent be disposed of?
Neutralize with isopropanol or saturated ammonium chloride solution before disposal. Follow local hazardous waste regulations for ether-containing mixtures.
