Description
Recommended products
(R)-5-Bromo-3-[1-(26-Dichloro-3-Fluorophenyl)Ethoxy]Pyridin-2-Amine 98.0%(HPLC)
Application
KHP can be used as a buffering agent (in combination with hydrochloric acid (HCl) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) depending on which side of pH 4.0 the buffer is to be) but should not be used as a buffer for decarboxylation reactions as these will degrade the KHP and mop up the conjugation groups.
Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.
General Description
Potassium hydrogen phthalate often called simply KHP is an acidic salt compound. It forms white powder colorless crystals a colorless solution and an ionic solid that is the monopotassium salt of phthalic acid. KHP is slightly acidic and it is often used as a primary standard for acid-base titrations because it is solid and air-stable making it easy to weigh accurately. It is not hygroscopic. It is also used as a primary standard for calibrating pH meters because besides the properties just mentioned its pH in solution is very stable.
