Chemical Structure

4-(Chloromethyl)aniline CAS 65581-19-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(Chloromethyl)aniline is closely related to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(Chloromethyl)aniline (CAS 65581-19-3), molecular formula C7H8ClN and molecular weight 141.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-(Chloromethyl)aniline (C7H8ClN) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 4-(Chloromethyl)aniline 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.
