Quality Control

Our Ethanone, 2-Chloro-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-Methylphenyl)- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent performance as a critical synthetic intermediate. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

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 light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation to maintain optimal purity and stability. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
