2-Chloro-1-(4-phenoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 13075-63-3 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 2-Chloro-1-(4-phenoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 13075-63-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H11ClO2, MW 246.69 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Chloro-1-(4-phenoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one (C14H11ClO2) 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 246.69 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
