CATO supplies 5,6-Dichloro-2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole (CAS 149045-79-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H2Cl2F2O2, MW 226.99 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
5,6-Dichloro-2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole (C7H2Cl2F2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 5,6-Dichloro-2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole 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.
