Product Overview

The Vanadium(III) chloride-tetrahydrofuran complex (1:3), 0.5M solution in methylene chloride is a highly specialized reagent designed for precision applications in advanced chemical synthesis. This complex combines vanadium(III) chloride with tetrahydrofuran (THF) in a 1:3 ratio, dissolved in methylene chloride at a 0.5M concentration, ensuring optimal reactivity and stability. The AcroSeal® grade guarantees minimal moisture contamination, making it suitable for air-sensitive reactions where purity is critical. The solution’s formulation enhances solubility and handling, reducing the risk of decomposition during storage or use. Its unique coordination chemistry enables efficient electron transfer processes, making it a preferred choice for researchers working on catalytic transformations and organometallic compound formation. The product is packaged under inert conditions to maintain its integrity, with the AcroSeal® technology providing an additional layer of protection against atmospheric exposure. This ensures that the reagent remains effective throughout its shelf life, delivering consistent performance in demanding laboratory environments.

FAQs

1. What is the shelf life of this Vanadium(III) chloride-THF complex solution?

The solution remains stable for 12 months when stored unopened at recommended conditions. Once opened, use within 6 months for optimal performance.

2. Can this complex be used in non-inert atmospheric conditions?

While the AcroSeal® packaging provides protection, the complex is air-sensitive. It is recommended to handle and store under inert gas (argon/nitrogen) for best results.

3. What precautions should be taken during storage?

Store at 2-8°C in a tightly sealed container, away from moisture and light. Keep the bottle upright to prevent leakage or cap contamination.

4. Is this solution compatible with standard glassware?

Yes, but ensure glassware is thoroughly dried and inertized before use, as residual moisture can degrade the complex.

5. Are there any known alternatives to this specific complex?

Vanadium(III) acetylacetonate or vanadium(III) chloride anhydrous can be alternatives, but they may require additional processing for similar reactivity.
