Chemical Structure

4-Chlorophenol CAS 106-48-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-Chlorophenol (CAS 106-48-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H5ClO, MW 128.56 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Chlorophenol is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.56 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 4-Chlorophenol 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.
