Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-5-fluoro-3-methylbenzyl alcohol CAS 1807237-14-4 chemical structure

Description

2-Chloro-5-fluoro-3-methylbenzyl alcohol (C8H8ClFO) 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).

2-Chloro-5-fluoro-3-methylbenzyl alcohol (CAS 1807237-14-4), molecular formula C8H8ClFO and molecular weight 174.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), 2-Chloro-5-fluoro-3-methylbenzyl alcohol 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.
