Description
NOTE: This product can only be sold and shipped within Canada.
Acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN) is an aliphatic nitrile that is commonly used as a reaction solvent as well as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. In many chromatographic techniques, MeCN is used as a mobile phase solvent due to its low viscosity, high elution strength, and miscibility in water.
Acetonitrile can be used as a solvent in:
-The solid-phase peptide synthesis.
-The sialylation reactions.
-The synthesis of copper nanoparticles by reduction of copper nitrate salt using NaBH4. During the preparation, ACN acts as a protecting solvent, which prevents the oxidation of nanoparticles.
-The preparation of diaryl selenides by Cu-catalyzed coupling reaction between aryl iodides and diphenyl diselenide. In this process, ACN also functions as a ligand for the copper catalyst to increase its catalytic activity.
