The occurrence of 3-Phosphonobenzoic acid is closely related to a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3-Phosphonobenzoic acid (CAS 14899-31-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H7O5P, MW 202.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3-Phosphonobenzoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
CATO manufactures 3-Phosphonobenzoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
