Quality Control

Our (2R,4R)-Rel-2,4-Bis(2’,4’-Difluorophenyl)-2,4-Dihydroxypentane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC and NMR, to ensure high chemical and enantiomeric purity suitable for sensitive synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each 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 must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture uptake, which can affect stability and handling properties.
