Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-4'-Fluorobiphenyl CAS 398-22-1 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 4-Chloro-4'-Fluorobiphenyl (CAS 398-22-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8ClF, MW 206.64 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Chloro-4'-Fluorobiphenyl (C12H8ClF) is characterized by fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Chloro-4'-Fluorobiphenyl 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.
