Chemical Structure

1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dimethylbenzene CAS 2745-54-2 chemical structure

Description

1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dimethylbenzene (CAS 2745-54-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H11Cl and a molecular weight of 154.64 g/mol.

1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dimethylbenzene (C9H11Cl) contains 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dimethylbenzene 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.
