Chemical Structure

[4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]-phenylmethanone CAS 42728-62-1 chemical structure

Description

[4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]-phenylmethanone (CAS 42728-62-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H11ClO and a molecular weight of 230.69 g/mol.

The molecular framework of [4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]-phenylmethanone (C14H11ClO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures [4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]-phenylmethanone 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.
