Chemical Structure

2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene CAS 93036-77-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene.

CATO supplies 2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene (CAS 93036-77-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10Cl2, MW 225.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 225.11 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.

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

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.
