Chemical Structure

3-(Dichloromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene CAS 135962-97-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 217.13 g/mol gives 3-(Dichloromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(Dichloromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene (CAS 135962-97-9), molecular formula C11H14Cl2 and molecular weight 217.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-(Dichloromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 217.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), 3-(Dichloromethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene 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.
