Chemical Structure

(R)-Epichlorohydrin CAS 51594-55-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 92.52 g/mol gives (R)-Epichlorohydrin distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies (R)-Epichlorohydrin (CAS 51594-55-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3H5ClO, MW 92.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(R)-Epichlorohydrin (C3H5ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-Epichlorohydrin 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.
