Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 1,3-Bis(chloromethyl) Benzene is closely related to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 1,3-Bis(chloromethyl) Benzene (CAS 626-16-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H8Cl2, MW 175.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
1,3-Bis(chloromethyl) Benzene (C8H8Cl2) contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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 1,3-Bis(chloromethyl) Benzene 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.
