Chemical Structure

2,4,6,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo[b,d]thiophene CAS 134705-49-0 chemical structure

Description

2,4,6,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo[b,d]thiophene (CAS 134705-49-0), molecular formula C12H4Cl4S and molecular weight 322.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,4,6,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo[b,d]thiophene (C12H4Cl4S) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
