Organic chemistry concerns the study and preparation of carbon-based compounds. This often involves the induction of finely-tuned reactions to enable the observation of specific compositions, properties, and structures. Rotary evaporation is a ubiquitous technique in organic laboratories, providing the means for a range of test objectives – primarily distillation and solvent recovery. What is a […]

Rotary evaporators, which chemists fondly refer to as rotovaps, are used to swirl a sample in a round-bottom flask like a wine connoisseur swirls an expensive glass of Bordeaux. But instead of trying to draw out the bouquet and taste as a connoisseur would for wine, chemists use rotovaps to remove solvents from a completed […]

Electronic devices have changed chemistry. Just as home kitchen counters now feature machines—such as electric kettles and multicookers—that make food preparation more convenient, so modern laboratory benches have dedicated labor-saving devices. For many labs, especially within organic chemistry, one of the most commonly seen and frequently used pieces of equipment is the rotary evaporator. Next-generation, […]
