Precautions

  1. Bis(acetonitrile)tetracarbonylmolybdenum is quite sensitive to moisture and oxygen; prolonged exposure may lead to structural changes, affecting experimental results.  Therefore, prolonged contact with air and moisture should be avoided.

  2. During weighing and reaction processes, it is recommended to perform the procedures under an inert gas atmosphere (such as argon or nitrogen) to maintain chemical stability.

  3. High temperatures and strong light may trigger decarbonylation or decomposition reactions; therefore, the process and storage should be carried out under mild conditions.

  4. If the product accidentally comes into contact with the eyes or skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention promptly.

  5. This product is not suitable for medical, food, or any direct consumption purposes, and is intended solely for professional scientific research and industrial development applications.
