Title: The Right DCM?
Post by: experimentalbois on June 06, 2003, 11:15:00 PM

SWIM recently purchased a gallon of Dichloromethane(CH2Cl2)(Stabilized)(HPLC/GC) and has been having trouble w/ his MM pBenzo Wacker....Everything is the same chemically as the last 30 successful wackers except for the DCM...Could the DCM be the problem??
