Description
Benzoylacetone is an organic β-diketone with empirical formula C₁₀H₁₀O₂ and CAS number 93-91-4, supplied at a minimum purity of 99 %. It has a molar mass of 162,19 g/mol, a density of 0,62 g/cm³, a flash point of 96,9 °C and a boiling point of 261,5 °C. This from manufacturer Carl ROTH is intended for synthetic organic chemistry, complexation work and intermediate preparation where a well-defined diketone is required. The compound’s physical constants support reproducible reaction planning and analytical method development. With EG number 202-286-4, benzoylacetone is a practical laboratory reagent for research groups that need consistent quality and clear specification data. Its combination of purity, documented thermal behaviour and convenient pack size makes it suitable for routine synthesis, ligand studies and teaching laboratories that rely on reliable small-scale chemical stocks.

Questions about Benzoylacetone, min. 99 %, 25 g, plastic
What is this article?
Benzoylacetone, min. 99 %, 25 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
