Quality Control

Our trans-2-Methyl-3-Penten-2-Ol is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopy (NMR, IR), to verify identity, isomeric purity (trans-isomer content), and chemical purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided for every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and strong oxidizing agents.
