Chemical Structure

2,2',5-Trichlorobiphenyl CAS 37680-65-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2',5-Trichlorobiphenyl 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.

2,2',5-Trichlorobiphenyl (CAS 37680-65-2), molecular formula C12H7Cl3 and molecular weight 257.54 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,2',5-Trichlorobiphenyl is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 257.54 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).

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