Product Description
2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH or DNPH) is the organic compound. DNPH is a red to orange solid. It is a substituted hydrazine. The solid is relatively sensitive to shock and friction. For this reason DNPH is usually handled as a wet powder. DNPH is a precursor to the drug Sivifene.High Purity Reagent for Reliable Analysis2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine AR, with a purity of 99%, guarantees accurate and dependable results in laboratory analyses. Its advanced formulation ensures minimal interference in detection of carbonyl compounds. Designed specifically for scientific settings, it meets the rigorous standards required for analytical applications.
Safe Handling and Storage GuidelinesDue to its sensitivity to light and potential to cause irritation, 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine AR should be handled with appropriate personal protective equipment. Always store the compound in a tightly closed container, placed in a cool and dry environment, to preserve its quality and effectiveness over its 36-month shelf life.
FAQ's of 2-4-DINITROPHENYL HYDRAZINE AR (100 gm):
