Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Ethyl (Z)-3-chloroacrylate 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.
Ethyl (Z)-3-chloroacrylate (CAS 16490-99-6), molecular formula C5H7ClO2 and molecular weight 134.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Ethyl (Z)-3-chloroacrylate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 134.56 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
