Chemical Structure

1-(Chloromethyl)-2,4,5-trimethylbenzene CAS 10340-77-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1-(Chloromethyl)-2,4,5-trimethylbenzene 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.

CATO supplies 1-(Chloromethyl)-2,4,5-trimethylbenzene (CAS 10340-77-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H13Cl, MW 168.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-(Chloromethyl)-2,4,5-trimethylbenzene (C10H13Cl) is characterized by chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
