Chemical Structure

5-Chloro-1-indanone CAS 42348-86-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Chloro-1-indanone 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.

5-Chloro-1-indanone (CAS 42348-86-7), molecular formula C9H7ClO and molecular weight 166.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-Chloro-1-indanone (C9H7ClO) 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.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
