Germanium(IV) chloride (CAS 10038-98-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula Cl4Ge and a molecular weight of 214.45 g/mol.
Germanium(IV) chloride (Cl4Ge) contains chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
CATO manufactures Germanium(IV) chloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
