Quality Control

Our (2S,5S)-1,6-Diphenylhexane-2,5-Diamine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity verification by HPLC, to ensure compliance with exacting standards for research and process chemistry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, enantiomeric excess, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment and opened under dry, inert conditions to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation.
