Chemical Structure

2,3',4'-Trichloroacetophenone CAS 42981-08-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2,3',4'-Trichloroacetophenone (C8H5Cl3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 223.48 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 2,3',4'-Trichloroacetophenone (CAS 42981-08-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5Cl3O, MW 223.48 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
