Chemical Structure

Pcb No. 12 CAS 2974-92-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Pcb No. 12 is closely related to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Pcb No. 12 (CAS 2974-92-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8Cl2 and a molecular weight of 223.10 g/mol.

Structurally, Pcb No. 12 (C12H8Cl2) contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 223.10 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Pcb No. 12 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.
