Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 456.68 g/mol gives 5,6-Dichloro-2-(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)-1-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-1H-1,3-benzodiazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 5,6-Dichloro-2-(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)-1-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-1H-1,3-benzodiazole (CAS 860609-21-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H11Cl3F3N3, MW 456.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 5,6-Dichloro-2-(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)-1-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-1H-1,3-benzodiazole (C20H11Cl3F3N3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.0, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 456.68 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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).
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.
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.
