Quality Control

Every batch of 1,3-Dithiole-4-Carboxaldehyde, 2-Oxo- (9Ci) is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure identity, purity, and consistency for research and development purposes. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), identity (IR, NMR), and impurity profiles is available for each lot upon request. Our quality system is designed to support cGMP and ISO standards for reliable sourcing.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
