Chemical Structure

(4-Chlorophenyl)(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methanone CAS 85-28-9 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, (4-Chlorophenyl)(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methanone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 262.69 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.

(4-Chlorophenyl)(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methanone (CAS 85-28-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H11ClO3 and a molecular weight of 262.69 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (4-Chlorophenyl)(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methanone 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.
