Quality Control

Our Chlorocarbonyl Ferrocene is produced under controlled conditions to ensure high chemical purity and batch-to-batch consistency. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and IR for structural confirmation, to meet the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic) nature, containers should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent decomposition. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
