Chemical Structure

Methyl 8-chlorooctanoate CAS 16195-75-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 8-chlorooctanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 8-chlorooctanoate (CAS 16195-75-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H17ClO2 and a molecular weight of 192.68 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C9H17ClO2, Methyl 8-chlorooctanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 192.68 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
