Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-(3-Chloropropyl)-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dioxolane is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 244.69 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
4-(3-Chloropropyl)-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dioxolane (CAS 55396-00-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14ClFO2 and a molecular weight of 244.69 g/mol.
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.
