Description

1,3,6-Trichlorodibenzofuran is a specific, high-purity chlorinated dibenzofuran compound, identified by CAS NO 83704-39-6. This chemical serves as a critical reference standard and analytical intermediate for environmental monitoring and toxicological research. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, research institutions, and chemical manufacturers engaged in the study of dioxin-like compounds, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and advanced material synthesis.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Used as a certified standard for the calibration and quantification of polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) in environmental and biological samples via GC-MS or HRGC/HRMS.
• Environmental Research: A key compound in studies investigating the environmental fate, distribution, and toxicokinetics of chlorinated aromatic pollutants.
• Toxicology Studies: Employed in laboratory research to understand the structure-activity relationships and toxic effects of specific dioxin congeners.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a building block or precursor in the synthesis of more complex halogenated organic compounds for specialized applications.
• Quality Control Material: Serves as a known compound for validating analytical methods and ensuring the accuracy of testing protocols in contract research organizations (CROs).
• Regulatory Compliance Testing: Used by industries to test for trace contaminants in products or emissions to ensure compliance with international regulations like the Stockholm Convention.
