Chemical Structure

3-Chloro-4-ethoxy-5-fluorocinnamic acid CAS 1017779-08-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Chloro-4-ethoxy-5-fluorocinnamic acid (CAS 1017779-08-6), molecular formula C11H10ClFO3 and molecular weight 244.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-Chloro-4-ethoxy-5-fluorocinnamic acid (C11H10ClFO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Chloro-4-ethoxy-5-fluorocinnamic acid 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.
