Chemical Structure

Ytterbium(III) chloride CAS 10361-91-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ytterbium(III) chloride is closely related to chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ytterbium(III) chloride (CAS 10361-91-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula Cl3Yb, MW 279.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula Cl3Yb, Ytterbium(III) chloride contains chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 279.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
