Quality Control

Our p-Toluquinone, 3-Chloro-6-Hydroxy- (1Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency, meeting the stringent requirements of research and process chemistry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
