Description
n-Hexane is an aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent supplied as ROTIDRY®Sept grade with a minimum assay of 99 % and a water specification of min. 30 ppm H₂O. Registered under CAS number 110-54-3 with empirical formula C₆H₁₄, it has a molar mass of 86,18 g/mol and a density of 0,66 g/cm³. The boiling range is 68 to 69 °C and the flash point is −22 °C. Presented in a 250 ml septum bottle, this dry n-hexane grade supports extractions, chromatography sample work-up, and non-polar reaction media where controlled moisture and convenient septum access are advantageous. Specification details match the manufacturer description from Carl ROTH. Laboratories use n-hexane as a low-polarity solvent for organic synthesis, lipid work, and general analytical preparation when a defined high-purity alkane in a septum-sealed pack is required.
This article is part of Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), in Solvents.

Questions about n-Hexane, ROTIDRY®Sept, min. 99% (min. 30 ppm H2O), 250 ml, septum bottle
What is this article?
n-Hexane, ROTIDRY®Sept, min. 99% (min. 30 ppm H2O), 250 ml, septum bottle is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
A dry solvent has had water removed to a stated level, for a reaction that water would stop. A deuterated solvent replaces hydrogen with deuterium so an NMR spectrum is not drowned by the solvent signal. The isotopic enrichment and the water content are the two specifications. Caps and septa matter, because either product picks up moisture from the air.
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.
