Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 34006-49-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 34006-49-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6ClNO3 and a molecular weight of 199.59 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-Chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 199.59 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chloro-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethan-1-one 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.
