Quality Control

Our 2-(6-Bromo-2-Methoxy-1-Naphthyl)Acetonitrile is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 can affect stability and reactivity. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
