1-Chloro-4-(4-methoxybenzyl)benzene (CAS 37155-52-5), molecular formula C14H13ClO and molecular weight 232.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 1-Chloro-4-(4-methoxybenzyl)benzene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 232.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Chloro-4-(4-methoxybenzyl)benzene 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.
