What if phosgene reagents were available off the shelf in your lab? What if you could obtain them without any transport and storage concerns? Or use them without complicated equipment, or worrying about handling them due to the safety hazards commonly associated with phosgene?

Impossible? NOT ANYMORE! Sigma-Aldrich now offers Eckert’s Cartridges for Safe Phosgenation (U. S. Patent 6,399,822 B1) to our customers worldwide. Based on the catalytic formation of phosgene, the cartridge contains a unique, safe precursor capable of generating this versatile reagent in quantities of 20 mmol and 50 mmol.

Eckert’s Cartridges for Safe Phosgenation offer many benefits:
