Chemical Structure

3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate CAS 13159-52-9 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-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (CAS 13159-52-9), molecular formula C7H11ClO3 and molecular weight 178.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (C7H11ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate 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.
