Chemical Structure

3-(3-Chlorophenyl)-2',3'-dichloropropiophenone CAS 898787-35-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 3-(3-Chlorophenyl)-2',3'-dichloropropiophenone (C15H11Cl3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 313.61 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

3-(3-Chlorophenyl)-2',3'-dichloropropiophenone (CAS 898787-35-4), molecular formula C15H11Cl3O and molecular weight 313.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
