Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-3-methoxyaniline CAS 13726-14-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Chloro-3-methoxyaniline.

4-Chloro-3-methoxyaniline (CAS 13726-14-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8ClNO and a molecular weight of 157.60 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Chloro-3-methoxyaniline is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 157.60 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Chloro-3-methoxyaniline 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.
