Chemical Structure

1-(4-Chlorophenoxy)propan-2-one CAS 18859-35-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1-(4-Chlorophenoxy)propan-2-one (C9H9ClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

1-(4-Chlorophenoxy)propan-2-one (CAS 18859-35-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9ClO2 and a molecular weight of 184.62 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(4-Chlorophenoxy)propan-2-one 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.
