Chemical Structure

1-(3-Chloropropyl)-1,1,3,3,3-pentamethyldisiloxane CAS 18291-27-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 1-(3-Chloropropyl)-1,1,3,3,3-pentamethyldisiloxane is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 224.88 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies 1-(3-Chloropropyl)-1,1,3,3,3-pentamethyldisiloxane (CAS 18291-27-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H21ClOSi2, MW 224.88 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
