Chemical Structure

(3-Chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl)methanol CAS 67640-34-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (3-Chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl)methanol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

(3-Chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl)methanol (CAS 67640-34-0), molecular formula C7H5ClF2O and molecular weight 178.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (3-Chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl)methanol (C7H5ClF2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 178.56 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
