Quality Control

Our (S)-1-Phenylethane-1,2-Diamine is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure high chemical and chiral purity, meeting the stringent requirements for advanced synthetic applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing specifications for identity, assay, enantiomeric excess, and impurities is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent moisture absorption and degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
