Chemical Structure

(2E)-4-[(3-Chlorophenyl)amino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid CAS 18196-80-0 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.

(2E)-4-[(3-Chlorophenyl)amino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid (CAS 18196-80-0), molecular formula C10H8ClNO3 and molecular weight 225.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (2E)-4-[(3-Chlorophenyl)amino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid (C10H8ClNO3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2E)-4-[(3-Chlorophenyl)amino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid 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.
