WHERE TO FIND THF IN CANADA?

SHADYCHASE54 - 11-2-2011 at 10:45

I realize asking any questions about locating reagents or be it solvents is a crap shoot, few are willing to share their supplier. However, I have to give it a go as I am interested in carrying out an experiment in which thf is a reagent and not a solvent. I am not one whom usually has any issue obtaining chems. I am however finding it exceptionally difficult to find thf above tech grade. If anyone is willing to share a CANADIAN source it would be appreciated either post or u2u if you don't want the info on the open forum. Any aid is appreciated I do understand if none is offered.
Fingers crossed I await responces hopefully.

Why not buy the tech grade and purify it yourself.

Also it can be obtained from PVC pipe dope, ie, the primer:
