Chemical Structure

3-(4-Chloro-2-propylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol CAS 64894-58-2 chemical structure

Description

3-(4-Chloro-2-propylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol (CAS 64894-58-2), molecular formula C16H14O5 and molecular weight 286.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-(4-Chloro-2-propylphenoxy)propane-1,2-diol is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
