Quality Control

Every batch of 3-(3-Bromophenyl)-3-Chloropropan-1-Ol is manufactured and tested under strict quality management systems. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the material meets the high-purity standards required for research and process development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles by techniques such as HPLC, GC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy is supplied with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be opaque or stored in dark conditions.
