Chemical Structure

1,2-Bis(2-chlorophenyl)ethan-1-ol CAS 53774-33-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

1,2-Bis(2-chlorophenyl)ethan-1-ol (CAS 53774-33-7), molecular formula C14H12Cl2O and molecular weight 267.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 1,2-Bis(2-chlorophenyl)ethan-1-ol is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 267.15 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.
