Has anyone tried TLR's J147?

I recall this vendor having tremendous difficulty with the synthesis of this compound as they continuously pushed the release date farther and farther back but it eventually was put up for purchase very recently without much commotion. Has anyone taken it? It sounds very promising for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease from what I have read.

It gets a little weird here at the Ceretropic offices.
Yeah in all honesty i can never remember my boss calling me in and saying "here try this peptide" :)

That's the least of the weirdness that goes on here!
I argued with China and my chemist late into the night last night, about the FTIR of the 7,8-DHF. I was wrong about the ketone being at 3000. The ketone is at 1700, and shows up in both samples. The peak at 3000 is actually carbon bonded hydrogens. The Sigma sample clearly shows a lot of carbon bonded hydrogens at 3000. That makes sense, since there are two aromatic rings in the structure. However, TLR's and our sample show no peaks there; not even a blip. Where the hell are all the carbon bonded hydrogens?!? If there is no peak there, then we don't have aromatic rings in the molecule. Even with the hydroxyl groups smoothing out that protrusion that happens at 3500-3000, there should be peaks at or below 3000 for the aromatic rings. Where are they?!?
I just looked back at all our FTIR results, and every molecule with an aromatic ring has peaks around 3000. Even Piracetam, which does not have an aromatic ring, but does have a ring with multiple carbon bonded hydrogens, has peaks at 3000. The ketones are clearly at 1700, so that is not the issue. It's the missing carbon bonded hydrogens. So my trihydoxylphenylfuck is wrong. There is no phenyl, as there are no aromatic rings. WTF is this molecule they sent us?
