Chemical Structure
Description
The molecular framework of Methyl 2-chloro-4-(3-nitrophenyl)benzoate (C14H10ClNO4) 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 the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Methyl 2-chloro-4-(3-nitrophenyl)benzoate (CAS 252921-16-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H10ClNO4 and a molecular weight of 291.69 g/mol.
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.
