Chemical Structure

Methyl 3,5-dichloro-4-(difluoromethoxy)-phenylacetate CAS 1806352-77-1 chemical structure

Description

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.

Methyl 3,5-dichloro-4-(difluoromethoxy)-phenylacetate (CAS 1806352-77-1), molecular formula C10H8Cl2F2O3 and molecular weight 285.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl 3,5-dichloro-4-(difluoromethoxy)-phenylacetate (C10H8Cl2F2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3,5-dichloro-4-(difluoromethoxy)-phenylacetate 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.
