Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 1-(1-Chloropropan-2-yl)-2-methylbenzene is closely related to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1-(1-Chloropropan-2-yl)-2-methylbenzene (CAS 825-37-6), molecular formula C10H13Cl and molecular weight 168.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(1-Chloropropan-2-yl)-2-methylbenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 168.66 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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 1-(1-Chloropropan-2-yl)-2-methylbenzene 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.
