Can anyone recommed an anhydrous chloride source soluble in polar organic solvents? [NBu4]Cl would be obvious but seems very hard to dry, is [PPN]Cl any better? Are there any other options that might work?

Does anyone have an opinion on mBraun vs Vigor gloveboxes? Same difference or is one superior?

Does anyone have any experience of A&D balances? The small footprint seems good for gloveboxes, has anyone used one? Thanks!
