Chemical Structure

Chlordane(Mixture) CAS 57-74-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Chlordane(Mixture) is closely related to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Chlordane(Mixture) (CAS 57-74-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H6Cl8 and a molecular weight of 409.78 g/mol.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Chlordane(Mixture) is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 409.78 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures Chlordane(Mixture) 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.
