Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-(4-methylbenzyl)ethan-1-aminium chloride CAS 3597-21-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 282.63 g/mol gives 2-Chloro-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-(4-methylbenzyl)ethan-1-aminium chloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Chloro-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-(4-methylbenzyl)ethan-1-aminium chloride (CAS 3597-21-5), molecular formula C12H18Cl2NCl and molecular weight 282.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Chloro-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-(4-methylbenzyl)ethan-1-aminium chloride (C12H18Cl2NCl) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
