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 supplies 4-Chloro-3-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-fluoropropiophenone (CAS 898780-76-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H16ClFO, MW 290.76 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, 4-Chloro-3-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-fluoropropiophenone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 290.76 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Chloro-3-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-fluoropropiophenone 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.
