Chemical Structure
Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO supplies Potassium dichloroacetate (CAS 19559-59-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C2HCl2O2K, MW 167.03 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a salt form, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Potassium dichloroacetate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 167.03 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.
CATO manufactures Potassium dichloroacetate 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.
