Quality Control

Every batch of 3-(5-Bromo-2-Methoxy-Phenyl)-Propionaldehyde is manufactured under strict quality management systems. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the material meets the precise requirements of your synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA), including results from HPLC, GC, NMR, and other relevant tests, is supplied with each shipment to guarantee identity, purity, and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
