1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one (CAS 898794-46-2), molecular formula C17H16Cl2O and molecular weight 307.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 307.21 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).
CATO manufactures 1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one 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.
