Chemical Structure

Heptachlor epoxide Impurity 4 CAS 76986-14-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Heptachlor epoxide Impurity 4 is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Heptachlor epoxide Impurity 4 (CAS 76986-14-6), molecular formula C10H5Cl7O and molecular weight 389.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H5Cl7O, Heptachlor epoxide Impurity 4 contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 389.32 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures Heptachlor epoxide Impurity 4 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
