Quality Control

Our 1,2-Diphenyl-1-(4-Pyridyl)-2-(2-Pyridyl)Ethanol is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research and process chemistry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided for full traceability and quality assurance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect stability and handling properties.
