p-Toluenesulfonyl Hydrazide

[Astrum]

Is p-toluenesulfonyl hydrazide (CAS 1576-35-8) a monitored chemical within the United States? I haven't found this chemical mentioned anywhere here on the hive and only once on Rhodium's site here:

https://www.thevespiary.org/rhodium/Rhodium/chemistry/cinnamaldehyde.html

The only places that carry this are major chemical suppliers and I haven't found any practical preparations for it. So would it be suspicious ordering this from one of the major chemical suppliers?

Thanks,

if you cant explain in a ligit formwhy you want something even if its not on any watch lists is a bit suss...

Best is to figure out a good reason you can back up if asked.

However they may not ask... but its better to be prepared just incase.

In the example of the one time mentioned at the Rhodium site , it is used as a scavenger of the aldehyde . The uses found for the compound is both a blowing agent for PVC and a scavenger for ketones and aldehydes as noted in the Rhodium article. So a good use of the compound if asked is to remove some unwanted aldehyde or ketone from your soup..........java
