Chemical Structure

(2-chlorophenyl)(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanone CAS 82162-91-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, (2-chlorophenyl)(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 260.72 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

(2-chlorophenyl)(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanone (CAS 82162-91-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H13ClO2 and a molecular weight of 260.72 g/mol.

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 manufactures (2-chlorophenyl)(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanone 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.
