HIGHER YIELD
Due to higher concentration with no losses to residues.
DEPOSIT-FREE
No unwanted by-products.
WIDE TEMPERATURE SPECTRUM
Product remains stable from -50C to +170C.
HIGHLY SELECTIVE
No side reactions.
MAXIMISED SAFETY
Non pyrophoric so it’s easy to handle and use. This reduces accidents, safety compliance and handling issues.
EXTREMELY STABLE
Under correct storage conditions the product is ultra-stable over long time periods and temperature extremes. It has a minimum 24 months shelf life.
FLEXIBLE
Can be used across multiple synthesis reactions. This means you only need to hold one reducing agent.
COST SAVING
Less spent on safety and handling of other reducing agents.
Key Reactions
REDUCTION REACTIONS
Synhydrid® performs reduction reactions, transforming functional groups by means of hydride addition. It can reduce esters and acids to alcohols or aldehydes, ketones to aldehydes, amides and nitriles to amines, lactones to diols or lactols.
A VERSATILE INITIATOR
Synhydrid® is also a versatile initiator in anionic polymerisation of Caprolactam. It can also be used to initiate Grignard reactions smoothly and effectively.
