Merck/Sigma-Aldrich hexane is a high-purity solvent with an assay of at least 95% and suitability for HPLC applications. Hexane is a nonpolar hydrocarbon solvent commonly used in chromatography-related workflows, extraction, sample preparation and other analytical laboratory procedures where a low-polarity mobile-phase or solvent component is required by the method. The compound has the formula C6H14, CAS number 110-54-3 and a molecular weight of approximately 86.18 g/mol. Its boiling point is about 69°C. This 2.5 L format is appropriate for laboratories that use hexane routinely in HPLC and solvent-intensive analytical workflows. Users should follow the current safety data sheet and laboratory controls because hexane is highly flammable and presents significant health hazards with inappropriate exposure.
