Chemical Structure

4-(Chloromethyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane, mixture of diastereomers CAS 36236-72-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(Chloromethyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane, mixture of diastereomers is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(Chloromethyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane, mixture of diastereomers (CAS 36236-72-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11ClO2, MW 198.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-(Chloromethyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane, mixture of diastereomers (C10H11ClO2) 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 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 198.65 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

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.
