Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,4-Dichloro-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propiophenone.
CATO supplies 2,4-Dichloro-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propiophenone (CAS 898768-70-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H11Cl2FO, MW 297.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2,4-Dichloro-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propiophenone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 297.15 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,4-Dichloro-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propiophenone 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.
