Reagent for the introduction of a phenyl group and mild metalating agent.

The use of a 'ready-made' 2-Methyl-THF solution avoids the handling of the very hygroscopic and dusty ZnCl2 powder.

The ZnCl2 / 2-Methy-THF solution was developed mainly for the application in organic synthesis, e.g.:

Raw material for the glass, ceramics and enamel industries; basis material for the manufacture of other lithium compounds; catalyst for esterification; additive and flux for welding rods; additive in aluminum electrolysis melts; additive for quick-setting cement.

Cesium bromide is a highest purity product particularly used for scintillation purposes, e.g. in medical imaging.

white amorphous substance

Manufacture of pharmaceuticals. Swelling agent for proteins. Auxiliary product for the alkylation of weak amines. Lithium bromide is also available as a 52 - 55 % aqueous solution (Product No. 401200)

Grignard-reactions: reagent for the introduction of the iso-propyl group.

Strong, low-nucleophilic base for e.g. enolisations.

Initiator for olefin polymerization. Alkylating and metalating agent.

Titanium hydride powders find application in both pyrotechnic and metallurgical areas. They are utilized in initiator squibs and igniters.
