Chemical Structure

1,2,3,5-Tetrachloro-4,6-dinitrobenzene CAS 28073-03-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

1,2,3,5-Tetrachloro-4,6-dinitrobenzene (CAS 28073-03-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6Cl4N2O4 and a molecular weight of 305.89 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C6Cl4N2O4, 1,2,3,5-Tetrachloro-4,6-dinitrobenzene contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 305.89 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
