FAQs
What makes SuskaSol™ dried THF different from regular THF?
The SuskaSol™ version undergoes additional drying with molecular sieves to achieve ultra-low water content (below 50 ppm), making it suitable for moisture-sensitive reactions where regular THF might introduce water contamination.
Can I use this THF for HPLC applications?
Yes, this laboratory-grade THF is suitable for HPLC due to its high purity and low UV absorbance. However, for gradient HPLC, you may need to filter it through a 0.22 µm membrane to remove any potential particulates.
How should I store dried THF to maintain its anhydrous properties?
Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, keep it tightly sealed and consider using a solvent dispenser to minimize exposure to moisture. For long-term storage, some labs add fresh molecular sieves to the bottle.
Is this THF suitable for lithium-aluminum hydride reductions?
Absolutely. The anhydrous nature of this product makes it ideal for LiAlH4 reductions and other moisture-sensitive reactions. Always ensure your glassware is properly dried before use to maintain the anhydrous environment.
What’s the typical shelf life of dried THF?
When stored properly in its original sealed container, this product maintains its specifications for at least 12 months. Once opened, use within 3-6 months for best results, or implement proper drying procedures if storing longer.
