Chemical Structure

(+)-cis-Chlordane CAS 66514-88-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (+)-cis-Chlordane.

(+)-cis-Chlordane (CAS 66514-88-3), molecular formula C10H6Cl8 and molecular weight 409.78 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H6Cl8, (+)-cis-Chlordane contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 409.78 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures (+)-cis-Chlordane 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.
