Quality Control

Our Benzoyl Chloride, 3-Ethyl-2-Hydroxy-6-Methoxy- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C.
