Quality Control

Our Methyl 1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)Cyclopropane-1-Carboxylate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. We support cGMP standards for pharmaceutical applications and can tailor purity grades from technical to research (≥98%) and pharmaceutical (≥99%) levels 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). This compound is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider maintaining under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to preserve stability and prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
