Chemical Structure

(3-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride CAS 41904-39-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride is closely related to 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 (3-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride (CAS 41904-39-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6Cl2O, MW 189.04 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (3-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride (C8H6Cl2O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures (3-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
