Quality Control

Our Potassium (3-Cyanomethylphenyl)Trifluoroborate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including NMR (1H, 11B, 19F) and HPLC analysis, to ensure high chemical purity and consistent performance in sensitive coupling reactions. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to maintain stability and purity. Keep away from incompatible materials.
