Derivatization Reagents for Silylation
Sigma-Aldrich SupelcoSupelco provides high quality derivatization reagents for silylation.Silylation is the most widely used derivatization technique. Functional groups that present a problem with gas chromatogaphy detection - hydroxyl, carboxylic acid, amine, thiol, phosphate - can be derivatized by silylation reagents. Silylation involves replacement of the acidic hydrogen with an alkylsilyl group, for example, -SiMe3.Silylation derivatives are…
