Quality Control

Our 5-(3,5-Dichloro-Phenyl)-Furan-2-Carbonyl Chloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure high chemical purity and identity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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 and reactivity as an acid chloride, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent hydrolysis. Keep away from strong bases, alcohols, and moisture.
