The occurrence of Dimethylsilyl(cyclopentadienyl)(9-fluorenyl)zirconiumdichloride is closely related to chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Dimethylsilyl(cyclopentadienyl)(9-fluorenyl)zirconiumdichloride (CAS 161994-85-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H22SiZrCl, MW 417.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Dimethylsilyl(cyclopentadienyl)(9-fluorenyl)zirconiumdichloride is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 417.15 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.
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), Dimethylsilyl(cyclopentadienyl)(9-fluorenyl)zirconiumdichloride 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.
