Chemical Structure

1-(Benzyloxy)-4-chlorobenzene CAS 7700-27-8 chemical structure

Description

1-(Benzyloxy)-4-chlorobenzene (CAS 7700-27-8), molecular formula C13H11ClO and molecular weight 218.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-(Benzyloxy)-4-chlorobenzene (C13H11ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
