Chemical Structure

1,4-Dichloropentane CAS 626-92-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,4-Dichloropentane is closely related to chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,4-Dichloropentane (CAS 626-92-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H10Cl2 and a molecular weight of 141.04 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1,4-Dichloropentane (C5H10Cl2) is characterized by chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,4-Dichloropentane 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.
