Chemical Structure

6,7-Dichloro-4-oxo-4H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde CAS 64481-11-4 chemical structure

Description

6,7-Dichloro-4-oxo-4H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde (CAS 64481-11-4), molecular formula C10H4Cl2O3 and molecular weight 243.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6,7-Dichloro-4-oxo-4H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 243.04 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.

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

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.
