Quality Control

Our production of 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(1-Heptenyl)- (9Ci) adheres to stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. All materials are subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to verify identity, potency, and impurity profiles. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment, and we support custom purity grades to meet specific R&D or industrial requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). Due to its nature as an easily oxidized compound, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
