Quality Control

Our (2S)-2-Amino-2-(6-Methoxy(2-Pyridyl))Ethan-1-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC for enantiomeric excess (ee) determination, to ensure high chemical and optical purity suitable for demanding synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with full analytical data are provided and can be tailored to meet specific customer or regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials.
