Chemical Structure

5-(4-Chlorobenzylidene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione CAS 15851-87-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-(4-Chlorobenzylidene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 266.68 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-(4-Chlorobenzylidene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione (CAS 15851-87-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H11ClO4 and a molecular weight of 266.68 g/mol.

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

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.
