Quality Control

Our 2-Bromo-1-(3-Ethyl-Phenyl)-Ethanone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, NMR, and FTIR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all specifications and test results. Our commitment to quality ensures a reliable supply of high-purity intermediates for your critical research and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and reducing agents.
