Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3,4-Dimethylbenzylmagnesium chloride.
3,4-Dimethylbenzylmagnesium chloride (CAS 36229-43-3), molecular formula C9H11ClMg and molecular weight 178.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a salt form, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3,4-Dimethylbenzylmagnesium chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 178.94 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
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), 3,4-Dimethylbenzylmagnesium chloride 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.
