CATO manufactures 5-Chloro-2-fluoro-3-methylbenzaldehyde 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.
CATO supplies 5-Chloro-2-fluoro-3-methylbenzaldehyde (CAS 1538090-76-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6ClFO, MW 172.58 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
5-Chloro-2-fluoro-3-methylbenzaldehyde (C8H6ClFO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
