Chemical Structure

2,3,4,5,6-Pentamethylbenzyl Chloride CAS 484-65-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,3,4,5,6-Pentamethylbenzyl Chloride.

2,3,4,5,6-Pentamethylbenzyl Chloride (CAS 484-65-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H17Cl and a molecular weight of 196.72 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2,3,4,5,6-Pentamethylbenzyl Chloride (C12H17Cl) is characterized by chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring 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.

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.
