Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 128.99 g/mol gives 2-Chloroethyl Chloromethyl Ether distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
2-Chloroethyl Chloromethyl Ether (CAS 1462-33-5), molecular formula C3H6Cl2O and molecular weight 128.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-Chloroethyl Chloromethyl Ether is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.99 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chloroethyl Chloromethyl Ether 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.
