Acetonitrile is an aliphatic nitrile with a pleasant odor and colorless liquid appearance when stored at room temperature. It is ideal for fluorimetric and spectrophotometric techniques due to its clarity under UV-visible light. It has been widely used as a polar aprotic solvent in organic syntheses due to its high eluting ability. Our premium quality Acetonitrile LC/MS grade is highly recommended for high performance liquid chromatography (LC/MS ) systems. It is also certified by the ACS (American Chemical Society) as a reagent due to its high purity.
