3-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulphonicacid (CAS 107-57-3), molecular formula C3H7ClO4S and molecular weight 174.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulphonicacid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 174.60 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulphonicacid 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.
