The occurrence of 2-Chloro-1-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethanone is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-Chloro-1-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethanone (CAS 56374-25-5), molecular formula C12H15ClO and molecular weight 210.70 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Chloro-1-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 210.70 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).
