Chemical Structure

2,6-Dichloroanisole CAS 1984-65-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,6-Dichloroanisole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 177.03 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2,6-Dichloroanisole (CAS 1984-65-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6Cl2O and a molecular weight of 177.03 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.

CATO manufactures 2,6-Dichloroanisole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
