Quality Control

Every batch of (1S,2R)-2-Bromo-1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-Naphthalen-1-Ol undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and enantiomeric excess meet the highest standards for research and development. Our quality commitment includes adherence to cGMP principles where applicable. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing chiral purity, chemical purity, and relevant physical parameters is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its sensitivity to light and oxidation, prolonged exposure to air or light should be avoided.
