Chemical Structure

1,1'-Dichloroferrocene CAS 1293-67-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1,1'-Dichloroferrocene (C10H8Cl2Fe) is characterized by a salt form, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

1,1'-Dichloroferrocene (CAS 1293-67-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8Cl2Fe and a molecular weight of 254.92 g/mol.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,1'-Dichloroferrocene 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.
