Chemical Structure

5-(Pentachlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloro-2-norbornene CAS 36439-47-1 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C13H3Cl11, 5-(Pentachlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloro-2-norbornene contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 549.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

5-(Pentachlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloro-2-norbornene (CAS 36439-47-1), molecular formula C13H3Cl11 and molecular weight 549.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
