Eidolon Chemical Services Ltd. (ECS)

Manufacturer and worldwide distributor of trans-β-methyl-β-nitrostyrene also known as 1-phenyl-2-nitropropene - an organic research chemical synthesised via the n-butylamine cold synthesis method producing a high quality crystal product.

Use: This is a relatively simple unsubstituted version of a nitropropene and so is comparatively cheap, making it of use to organic chemists to practice techniques, as it has a close reaction profile to the more esoteric and expensive medically-active organic chemicals. This makes it very useful to both companies and individual researchers (post-grad, RA's) alike; organic synthesis companies can train/test new personnel, and it gives the independent researcher/post-graduate/research assistant a chance to maximise yields and minimise mistakes when they only have a very small but hard-earned sample of the target substituted molecule to work with.

Description:
This nitroalkene is produced by the reaction of benzaldehyde and nitroethane in the presence of a basic catalyst.
This is a nitroaldol reaction, the base deprotonates nitroethane to form a resonance stabilized anion.
This anion nucleophilically adds to the aldehyde forming a beta nitro alcohol, which is subsequently dehydrated to yield the nitroalkene.

Note: We cannot send any packages without tracking for insurance purposes, both yours and ours.


E-commerce online ordering for this site by Square along with pay in 3 installments has been cancelled due to 'policy', which is the same as eBay decided, they believe this research chemical is a drug, even though we have supplied evidence proving it has no pharmaceutical value and in fact contact with skin causes blisters hence it's classification as an Irritant, although this classification is less harmful that bleach or paint stripper which they both sell.
This molecule is not on any postal service's banned list, it does not contain any dinitro groups, nor is it illegal anywhere in the world, it is not even on USA's TCSA list of toxic chemicals, nor on the pending list for TCSA.
