description Product Description
Acetonitrile is widely used as a solvent in the purification of butadiene in refineries due to its ability to selectively dissolve certain compounds. In the pharmaceutical industry, it serves as a key solvent in the production of antibiotics, vitamins, and other drugs, particularly in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for analyzing and separating complex mixtures. It is also employed in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including pesticides, as an intermediate or reaction medium. Additionally, acetonitrile is utilized in battery technology, specifically in lithium-ion batteries, where it acts as an electrolyte solvent. Its high dielectric constant and polarity make it suitable for electrochemical applications and as a solvent in DNA synthesis and peptide sequencing. In laboratories, it is a common solvent for spectroscopy and other analytical techniques due to its UV transparency and compatibility with various detectors.
