Quality Control

Our (S)-(-)-4-Pyrrolidinopyrindinyl(Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)Iron is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high catalytic performance. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity assessment by HPLC and elemental analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and chiral excess are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its sensitivity to light and oxygen, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep the container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from incompatible materials.
