Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-2-(pentyloxy)benzoyl chloride CAS 1443313-50-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Methyl-2-(pentyloxy)benzoyl chloride.

5-Methyl-2-(pentyloxy)benzoyl chloride (CAS 1443313-50-5), molecular formula C13H17ClO2 and molecular weight 240.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 5-Methyl-2-(pentyloxy)benzoyl chloride (C13H17ClO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 240.73 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.

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.
