Quality Control

Our 2-Naphthalenecarboxylic Acid, 3,4-Dihydro-6,7-Dihydroxy- (9Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to the presence of phenolic hydroxyl groups, this material may be sensitive to oxidation and should be handled under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage.
