Quality Control

Our 2,6-Dimethoxy-3,7-Diiodonaphthalene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
