Quality Control

Every batch of Benzoyl Chloride, 5-Fluoro-2,3-Dihydroxy- (9Ci) is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We ensure high purity and consistency through advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC, NMR, and GC-MS. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature and reactivity as a strong acid/organic solvent, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as bases, oxidizing agents, and moisture.
