Chemical Structure

2-Chlorobutane CAS 78-86-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Chlorobutane is closely related to chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Chlorobutane (CAS 78-86-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H9Cl, MW 92.57 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Chlorobutane (C4H9Cl) contains chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 92.57 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures 2-Chlorobutane 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.
