Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-3,3',5'-trichlorobenzophenone CAS 951891-06-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-Methyl-3,3',5'-trichlorobenzophenone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 356.59 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.

CATO supplies 4-Methyl-3,3',5'-trichlorobenzophenone (CAS 951891-06-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H10ClIO, MW 356.59 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Methyl-3,3',5'-trichlorobenzophenone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
