3-Chloro-2,2-bis(chloromethyl)propanoic acid (CAS 17831-70-8), molecular formula C5H7Cl3O2 and molecular weight 205.47 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 3-Chloro-2,2-bis(chloromethyl)propanoic acid (C5H7Cl3O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
