The occurrence of Pcb No. 76 is closely related to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Pcb No. 76 (CAS 70362-48-0), molecular formula C12H6Cl4 and molecular weight 291.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Pcb No. 76 (C12H6Cl4) contains 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
