THF Rotavap
« on: October 29, 2012, 08:39:27 PM »
Hey guys,

I got my final product but there is THF in there. I let rotavap for a good 15 min. but I still have a large excess of THF it seems.

How long should I rotavap with THF?

Cheers

THF is easily removed with a rotavap.
Increase the vacuum and et the water bath at 28°C.
Just keep going, it takes some time.
