Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 360.88 g/mol gives Pcb No. 157 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Pcb No. 157 (CAS 69782-90-7), molecular formula C12H4Cl6 and molecular weight 360.88 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C12H4Cl6, Pcb No. 157 contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 360.88 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
