Chemical Structure

2,3-Dichloro-3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone CAS 898775-13-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2,3-Dichloro-3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone (CAS 898775-13-8), molecular formula C16H14Cl2O2 and molecular weight 309.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,3-Dichloro-3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone (C16H14Cl2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
