Chemical Structure

2,4-Dichloro-3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)propiophenone CAS 898755-20-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 307.21 g/mol gives 2,4-Dichloro-3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)propiophenone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2,4-Dichloro-3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)propiophenone (CAS 898755-20-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H16Cl2O and a molecular weight of 307.21 g/mol.

2,4-Dichloro-3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)propiophenone (C17H16Cl2O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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 2,4-Dichloro-3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)propiophenone 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.
