Try Caledon Labs in Canada. www.caledonlabs.com .
I know of at least one lab that’s gone that route. The purity of their solvents is very good from what I hear.

Acetonitrile
If you
are not
already an acetonitrile customer, no vendoers will accept orders for
that
material anymore. They are operating on a quota system now, with
each
customer being issued a quota'd amount equal to their purchasing
history.
Does anyone have any news about when the plant that makes the acetonitrile will come back online?
What about any news from the FDA? Are they entertaining alternatives for acetonitrile for use in submitted and approved test methods?
Seems
to me
that whoever comes up with a workable alternative solvent will
definitely have
more than their 15 minutes of fame!
