Chemical Structure

Dichlorodi-p-tolylsilane CAS 18414-38-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Dichlorodi-p-tolylsilane is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 281.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Dichlorodi-p-tolylsilane (CAS 18414-38-5), molecular formula C14H14Cl2Si and molecular weight 281.25 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.

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.
