Chemical Structure

6-Methylheptanoyl chloride CAS 70767-37-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 162.66 g/mol gives 6-Methylheptanoyl chloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 6-Methylheptanoyl chloride (CAS 70767-37-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H15ClO, MW 162.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 6-Methylheptanoyl chloride (C8H15ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 162.66 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), 6-Methylheptanoyl chloride 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.
