Chemical Structure

2,6-Dichloro-4-Methylphenol CAS 2432-12-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,6-Dichloro-4-Methylphenol 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.

CATO supplies 2,6-Dichloro-4-Methylphenol (CAS 2432-12-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6Cl2O, MW 177.03 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2,6-Dichloro-4-Methylphenol (C7H6Cl2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
