Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-1-methoxy-4-methyl-3-nitro-benzene CAS 1807173-28-9 chemical structure

Description

2-Chloro-1-methoxy-4-methyl-3-nitro-benzene (CAS 1807173-28-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8ClNO3 and a molecular weight of 201.61 g/mol.

2-Chloro-1-methoxy-4-methyl-3-nitro-benzene (C8H8ClNO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-Chloro-1-methoxy-4-methyl-3-nitro-benzene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
