Quality Control

Our 3-(3,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2'-Fluoropropiophenone is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC chromatograms and NMR spectra, to support your R&D and scale-up processes. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available for every batch 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). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect product stability and performance.
