Description

(-)-trans-Chlordane CAS NO 142433-24-7 is a specific stereoisomer of the organochlorine compound chlordane, characterized by its distinct spatial configuration. This high-purity enantiomer is critical for research and analytical applications where stereochemical specificity is paramount, such as in environmental fate studies and the development of analytical reference standards. It is primarily utilized by analytical laboratories, environmental research institutions, and chemical manufacturers involved in the synthesis of specialized compounds or the calibration of detection equipment.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Serves as a certified high-purity standard for the accurate quantification and identification of chlordane isomers in environmental samples via GC-MS or HPLC.
• Environmental Fate and Metabolism Studies: Used in controlled laboratory research to investigate the degradation pathways, bioaccumulation, and stereoselective behavior of chlordane in ecosystems.
• Toxicological Research: Employed in studies to understand the differential biological activity and toxicity mechanisms of specific chlordane stereoisomers.
• Method Development and Validation: Essential for developing, calibrating, and validating analytical methods in regulatory and quality control laboratories.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a precise starting material or intermediate for the synthesis of other stereochemically defined organochlorine compounds for research purposes.
