Chemical Structure

1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-methyl-6-nitrobenzene CAS 22490-21-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-methyl-6-nitrobenzene (CAS 22490-21-7), molecular formula C7H3Cl4NO2 and molecular weight 274.92 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-methyl-6-nitrobenzene (C7H3Cl4NO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO manufactures 1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-methyl-6-nitrobenzene 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.
