Chemical Structure

Dicofol CAS 115-32-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Dicofol is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 370.49 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).

Dicofol (CAS 115-32-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H9Cl5O and a molecular weight of 370.49 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures Dicofol 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.
