Chemical Structure

1-[Chloro(phenyl)methyl]-4-methylbenzene CAS 779-14-6 chemical structure

Description

1-[Chloro(phenyl)methyl]-4-methylbenzene (C14H13Cl) contains chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

1-[Chloro(phenyl)methyl]-4-methylbenzene (CAS 779-14-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H13Cl and a molecular weight of 216.71 g/mol.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-[Chloro(phenyl)methyl]-4-methylbenzene 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.
