>I am looking for a supply of BrF5 that is reliable for laser fluorination. >Any comments about shipping the stuff would also be appreciated. > > Ian, Good timing. I am about to try and order some for myself and was about to post a message asking for other suppliers. The only place that I have heard of is Advanced Research Chemical Inc. in the States. Cost is US$1890/1 kg. It has to be sent by sea as it is a poisonous gas. If you find any other suppliers please let me know.
