4-(2-Nitrophenoxy)benzoic acid CAS 16309-46-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-(2-Nitrophenoxy)benzoic acid (CAS 16309-46-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H9NO5, MW 259.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(2-Nitrophenoxy)benzoic acid (C13H9NO5) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), 4-(2-Nitrophenoxy)benzoic acid 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.
