Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-1-(2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylphenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 57196-63-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Chloro-1-(2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylphenyl)ethan-1-one 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-(2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylphenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 57196-63-1), molecular formula C13H17ClO and molecular weight 224.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Chloro-1-(2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylphenyl)ethan-1-one (C13H17ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chloro-1-(2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylphenyl)ethan-1-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
