Chemical Structure

Phosphorus Pentachloride CAS 10026-13-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Phosphorus Pentachloride.

CATO supplies Phosphorus Pentachloride (CAS 10026-13-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula Cl5P, MW 208.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Phosphorus Pentachloride (Cl5P) contains organophosphorus functionality, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 208.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Phosphorus Pentachloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
