Quality Control

Our (1R)-1-(2-Methylphenyl)Pentylamine is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and process chemistry. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting identity, purity, and enantiomeric excess.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
