Quality Control

Our 2-Cyanoethylzinc Bromide is manufactured under stringent quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high reactivity. The product undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including titration and spectroscopic methods, to verify purity and concentration. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all quality parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its moisture-sensitive and highly volatile nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed and handled under inert conditions to prevent degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability.
