Product Overview
Vinylmagnesium bromide, supplied as a 1M solution in anhydrous 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF), is a highly reactive Grignard reagent designed for precision organic synthesis. The 2-MeTHF solvent enhances solubility and reactivity while maintaining stability under inert conditions. Packaged in AcroSeal® technology, this solution is protected from moisture and oxygen, ensuring consistent performance and extended shelf life. The reagent-grade purity minimizes side reactions, making it ideal for demanding applications in carbon-carbon bond formation, vinyl group introduction, and complex molecule synthesis. The air-tight packaging eliminates the need for immediate transfer to a glove box, reducing handling risks. Compatible with standard Schlenk techniques, this solution integrates seamlessly into existing lab workflows. The 2-MeTHF solvent offers a safer alternative to traditional ethers, combining high boiling point with improved environmental profile. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee concentration accuracy and absence of impurities that could compromise reaction outcomes.
FAQs
1. What is the typical moisture content in this vinylmagnesium bromide solution?
The AcroSeal® packaging maintains moisture levels below 50 ppm, ensuring optimal reagent performance for sensitive reactions.
2. Can this solution be used with standard glassware, or is special equipment required?
While compatible with standard glassware, we recommend using oven-dried or flame-dried apparatus to prevent moisture contamination during handling.
3. How does the 2-MeTHF solvent compare to traditional THF for this reagent?
2-MeTHF offers higher boiling point (80°C vs 66°C) and better environmental profile while maintaining comparable solubility and reactivity characteristics.
4. What is the recommended storage temperature for this product?
Store at 2-8°C in the original sealed container, protected from light and moisture for maximum stability.
5. Are there any known incompatibilities with common lab materials?
This reagent reacts violently with water and alcohols. Avoid contact with protic solvents, oxidizing agents, and halogenated compounds.
