Quality Control

Our Dodecylmagnesium Bromide is produced and handled under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including titration for active reagent concentration and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for sensitive synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, concentration, and solvent data are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, this product must be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) at recommended temperatures, typically between 2°C and 8°C for extended stability. The container should be kept in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials such as strong acids and oxidizing agents.
