Chemical Structure

1,1,1,3-Tetrachlorooctane CAS 18088-13-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 252.01 g/mol gives 1,1,1,3-Tetrachlorooctane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1,1,1,3-Tetrachlorooctane (CAS 18088-13-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H14Cl4, MW 252.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1,1,1,3-Tetrachlorooctane (C8H14Cl4) contains chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 252.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
