Chemical Structure

(2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)phenyl)methanol CAS 361212-70-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 269.12 g/mol gives (2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)phenyl)methanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies (2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)phenyl)methanol (CAS 361212-70-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H10Cl2O2, MW 269.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, (2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)phenyl)methanol (C13H10Cl2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 269.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
