Usage Protecting reagent
4,4-Dimethoxytrityl Chloride (CAS: 5821-96-7, Formula: C19H16ClO2) is a critical reagent in organic synthesis. It serves as the primary protecting group source for hydroxyl functionalities during nucleic acid oligomerization. The compound is manufactured via Friedel-Crafts chlorination of dimethoxytrityl alcohol.
Strictly store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent hydrolysis. Personnel must utilize full PPE including respiratory protection due to severe lachrymatory and corrosive properties upon contact with moisture.
