Quality Control

Our Benzoyl Chloride, 4-Methyl-2-Propoxy- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets exacting customer specifications and industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and reacts with strong acids/organic solvents; therefore, it must be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a desiccated environment and segregated from incompatible materials.
