Chemical Structure

Penconazole CAS 66246-88-6 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Penconazole (C13H15Cl2N3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

Penconazole (CAS 66246-88-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H15Cl2N3 and a molecular weight of 284.18 g/mol.

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.

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.
