2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one (CAS 94532-57-7), molecular formula C12H13ClN2O2 and molecular weight 252.70 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C12H13ClN2O2, 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 252.70 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
