Chemical Structure

5-Chlorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carbaldehyde CAS 249636-63-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-Chlorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carbaldehyde (CAS 249636-63-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5ClO3, MW 184.58 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-Chlorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carbaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 184.58 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Chlorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carbaldehyde 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.
