Chemical Structure

1,2,3,5,7-Pentachloronaphthalene CAS 53555-65-0 chemical structure

Description

1,2,3,5,7-Pentachloronaphthalene (CAS 53555-65-0), molecular formula C10H3Cl5 and molecular weight 300.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1,2,3,5,7-Pentachloronaphthalene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 300.40 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 1,2,3,5,7-Pentachloronaphthalene 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.
