The occurrence of 1,2-dichlorohexane is closely related to chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 1,2-dichlorohexane (CAS 2162-92-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H12Cl2, MW 155.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C6H12Cl2, 1,2-dichlorohexane contains chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 155.07 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
