Chemical Structure

Endosulfan-Alcohol CAS 2157-19-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Endosulfan-Alcohol.

Endosulfan-Alcohol (CAS 2157-19-9), molecular formula C9H8Cl6O2 and molecular weight 360.88 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Endosulfan-Alcohol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 360.88 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.

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.
