Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-3’,4’-dimethoxybenzophenone CAS 116412-83-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-Chloro-3’,4’-dimethoxybenzophenone (CAS 116412-83-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H13ClO3, MW 276.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-Chloro-3’,4’-dimethoxybenzophenone (C15H13ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 276.71 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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

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.
