Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-2-phenylpentanoyl chloride CAS 100388-64-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Methyl-2-phenylpentanoyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 210.70 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO supplies 3-Methyl-2-phenylpentanoyl chloride (CAS 100388-64-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15ClO, MW 210.70 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
