Chemical Structure

(S)-4-Chloro-1,2-epoxybutane CAS 948594-94-3 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 (S)-4-Chloro-1,2-epoxybutane.

(S)-4-Chloro-1,2-epoxybutane (CAS 948594-94-3), molecular formula C4H7ClO and molecular weight 106.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, (S)-4-Chloro-1,2-epoxybutane is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 106.55 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.

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.
