Chemical Structure

1,6-Dichloropyrene CAS 89315-21-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1,6-Dichloropyrene (CAS 89315-21-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H8Cl2, MW 271.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C16H8Cl2, 1,6-Dichloropyrene contains chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 271.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 1,6-Dichloropyrene 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.
