Chemical Structure

1-(Chloromethyl)-4-(2-methoxyethoxy)benzene CAS 79407-31-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 1-(Chloromethyl)-4-(2-methoxyethoxy)benzene (C10H13ClO2) 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 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 200.66 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

1-(Chloromethyl)-4-(2-methoxyethoxy)benzene (CAS 79407-31-1), molecular formula C10H13ClO2 and molecular weight 200.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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-(Chloromethyl)-4-(2-methoxyethoxy)benzene 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.
