Chemical Structure
Description
2-Chloro-6-methoxytoluene (CAS 3260-88-6), molecular formula C8H9ClO and molecular weight 156.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2-Chloro-6-methoxytoluene (C8H9ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 2-Chloro-6-methoxytoluene 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.
