Application

Phenylmagnesium bromide (PhMgBr) solution is an organomagnesium reagent mainly used in Grignard reaction, which finds application as the key step in the synthesis of (S)-2(diphenylmethyl)pyrrolidine, a chiral solvating agent for the NMR analysis.[1] PhMgBr can also undergo palladium-catalyzed Grignard coupling with alkyl chlorides to form the cross-coupled product in good yield.[2]

Other Notes

Storage below 25°C may cause crystallization. Warm gently to redissolve solid.

A novel molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor based on Fe3O4 nanobeads immobilized on graphene (Fe3O4-MIP@RGO) has been developed for detecting 17β-estradiol (17β-E2) in water using reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization technique. 17β-E2 can be detected by this electrochemical sensor

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
