Quality Control

Every batch of 5-(2,3-Dichloro-Phenyl)-Furan-2-Carbonyl Chloride is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the material meets the high standards required for research and scale-up activities. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is supplied with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from strong acids and organic solvents.
