1-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-3-methylbenzene CAS 68486-09-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 218.68 g/mol gives 1-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-3-methylbenzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-3-methylbenzene (CAS 68486-09-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H11ClO, MW 218.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

1-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-3-methylbenzene (C13H11ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-3-methylbenzene 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.
