Chemical Structure

1,2-Bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethene CAS 5121-74-4 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 1,2-Bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethene (CAS 5121-74-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H10Cl2, MW 249.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1,2-Bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethene (C14H10Cl2) is characterized by 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
