Dichlorobenzenemethanol CAS 12041-76-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Dichlorobenzenemethanol 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.

Dichlorobenzenemethanol (CAS 12041-76-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6Cl2O and a molecular weight of 177.03 g/mol.

Dichlorobenzenemethanol (C7H6Cl2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
