Chemical Structure

Bis(chloromethyl)(phenyl)phosphine oxide CAS 18788-46-0 chemical structure

Description

Bis(chloromethyl)(phenyl)phosphine oxide (C8H9Cl2OP) contains organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

Bis(chloromethyl)(phenyl)phosphine oxide (CAS 18788-46-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9Cl2OP and a molecular weight of 223.04 g/mol.

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.
