Chemical Structure

2,4-Bis(chloromethyl)trimethylbenzene CAS 1585-17-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

2,4-Bis(chloromethyl)trimethylbenzene (CAS 1585-17-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H20Cl2 and a molecular weight of 223.18 g/mol.

Owing to chlorine substitution, 2,4-Bis(chloromethyl)trimethylbenzene is typically white to off-white low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 223.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
