Chemical Structure

2,6-Dinitrochlorobenzene CAS 606-21-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,6-Dinitrochlorobenzene.

2,6-Dinitrochlorobenzene (CAS 606-21-3), molecular formula C6H3ClN2O4 and molecular weight 202.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H3ClN2O4, 2,6-Dinitrochlorobenzene contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 202.55 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2,6-Dinitrochlorobenzene 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.
