Keeping the pyridine dry.


I where wondering how pyridine (99,7%) as dry as possible without N2, because i don't have any N2. How about 0.4nm molecule sieves? It is possible to open the Pyridine bottle inside a box containing a air moisture adsorption bag? Or is it possible to fill the box with CO2 first? Or will the pyridine adsorb the CO2 and destroy the reaction in the synthesis. The synthesis is done in a normally fume hood without any N2 gas.

4A seem to work well for me. As for CO2, it would depend on the reaction (as a reactant or for pH control).
