Chemical Structure

4,4'-Methylenebis(2,3-dichloroaniline) CAS 42240-73-3 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.

4,4'-Methylenebis(2,3-dichloroaniline) (CAS 42240-73-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H10Cl4N2 and a molecular weight of 336.04 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 4,4'-Methylenebis(2,3-dichloroaniline) is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 336.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures 4,4'-Methylenebis(2,3-dichloroaniline) 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.
