Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Dechlorane A.
Dechlorane A (CAS 13560-89-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H12Cl12 and a molecular weight of 653.72 g/mol.
Owing to chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Dechlorane A is typically off-white to pale yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 653.72 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Dechlorane A 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.
