Chemical Structure

1,2,4,8,9-Pentachlorodibenzo[b,d]furan CAS 70648-23-6 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 1,2,4,8,9-Pentachlorodibenzo[b,d]furan (CAS 70648-23-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H3Cl5O, MW 340.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1,2,4,8,9-Pentachlorodibenzo[b,d]furan (C12H3Cl5O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
