Chemical Structure

1,2-Dichloro-2-methylpropane CAS 594-37-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 127.01 g/mol gives 1,2-Dichloro-2-methylpropane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1,2-Dichloro-2-methylpropane (CAS 594-37-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H8Cl2, MW 127.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to chlorine substitution, 1,2-Dichloro-2-methylpropane is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 127.01 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.

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.
