Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde CAS 1936654-31-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 1936654-31-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5ClF2O2 and a molecular weight of 206.57 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-Chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde (C8H5ClF2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/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).

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

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.
