Quality Control

Our (S)-2-Bromo-3-Phenylpropan-1-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC for enantiomeric excess (ee) determination, NMR, and GC/HPLC for purity and impurity profiling. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all specifications and test results to ensure compliance with your research or production requirements.

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). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
