Salts such as weak bases are omnipresent in organic chemistry. The conversion rate of a reaction can be greatly affected depending on the salt.While it is easy to weigh K2<\/sub>CO3<\/sub> or Na2<\/sub>CO3<\/sub>. Because salts like Cs2<\/sub>CO3<\/sub> or K3<\/sub>PO4<\/sub> are hydroscopic salts, they are more difficult to handle when the reaction conditions require anhydrous solution.<\/div>\n

No need for glove box<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/b><\/div>\n
When you want to test a hydroscopic salt you need to be able to weigh them in moisture free environment which requires the use of a isolation equipment such as a glove bag or a glove box. Because glove box is not common in organic synthesis laboratories; Therefore, chemists often pass on important salts such as potassium phosphate or cesium carbonate.<\/div>\n

Using pre-filled reaction vials<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Pre-filled reaction vials allow to handle hydroscopic salts without the need for an isolation chamber. By simply injecting your reaction solution through the septum using a syringe you can try multiple salts and optimize your chemistry.<\/div>\n
