Chemical Structure

DL-2-Chloro-2-phenylacetylchloride CAS 2912-62-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), DL-2-Chloro-2-phenylacetylchloride 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.

DL-2-Chloro-2-phenylacetylchloride (CAS 2912-62-1), molecular formula C8H6Cl2O and molecular weight 189.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, DL-2-Chloro-2-phenylacetylchloride (C8H6Cl2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 189.04 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
