Description
N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone is a polar aprotic lactam solvent provided in ROTICHROM® GC quality for gas-chromatographic reference use. It is registered under CAS number 872-50-4 and EG number 212-828-1, with the empirical formula C₅H₉NO and a molar mass of 99,13 g/mol. Characteristic physical values include a density of 1,03 g/cm³, a flash point of 91 °C and a boiling point of 204,3 °C, reflecting its relatively high boiling behaviour and strong solvating power for polar and polymeric materials. Supplied as a 5 ml glass pack, the product is intended for analytical laboratories that require a defined NMP reference for GC work, method checks or small-volume solvent applications. Density and boiling-point data assist in handling, temperature programming and comparison against literature retention behaviour. This ROTICHROM® GC item from manufacturer Carl ROTH delivers a compact, well-documented N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone unit suitable for controlled laboratory use where precise identity and physical specifications matter.

Questions about N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone, ROTICHROM® GC , 5 ml, glass
What is this article?
N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone, ROTICHROM® GC , 5 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Produits chimiques.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
