Quality Control

Every batch of (1R,2R,3S,5S)-2-Hydroxy-6-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]Hexane-3-Methanol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC and NMR, to ensure high chemical and enantiomeric purity suitable for demanding R&D and scale-up applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your specifications.

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 after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
