Chemical Structure

(3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)acetyl chloride CAS 78357-63-8 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies (3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)acetyl chloride (CAS 78357-63-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11ClO2, MW 198.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, (3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)acetyl chloride (C10H11ClO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 198.65 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
