Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-chloro-3,4-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoate CAS 1809337-06-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Methyl 5-chloro-3,4-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoate 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.

CATO supplies Methyl 5-chloro-3,4-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoate (CAS 1809337-06-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H9ClO4, MW 216.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 5-chloro-3,4-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 216.62 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.

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.
