Quality Control

Our (R,R)-(-)-1-Phenylcyclohexane-cis-1,2-Diol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and production. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, enantiomeric excess, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 15-25°C. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storage under an inert atmosphere.
