Quality Control

Our 1-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-Yl)-2-Bromo-1-Ethanone is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is available for every shipment upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
