Diethyl Pyrocarbonate CAS 1609-47-8

Diethyl Pyrocarbonate is a colorless transparent liquid with a slight sweet odor. Mainly used as inactivator of RNA enzyme in molecular biology (such as reagent preparation) and organic synthesis intermediates, its high reactivity can modify nucleic acids and proteins. It needs to be kept refrigerated and protected from light, decomposed in water, and protected by ventilation during operation.
