1,2,3,7,8,9-Hexachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin CAS 19408-74-3 chemical structure

Description

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

1,2,3,7,8,9-Hexachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin (CAS 19408-74-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H2Cl6O2 and a molecular weight of 390.87 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H2Cl6O2, 1,2,3,7,8,9-Hexachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 390.87 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2,3,7,8,9-Hexachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin 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.
