Chemical Structure

1-(Chloromethyl)-3-isopropylbenzene CAS 74705-35-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(Chloromethyl)-3-isopropylbenzene.

1-(Chloromethyl)-3-isopropylbenzene (CAS 74705-35-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H13Cl and a molecular weight of 168.66 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H13Cl, 1-(Chloromethyl)-3-isopropylbenzene contains chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 168.66 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
