Chemical Structure

Methyl 6-chloro-4-oxo-4h-chromene-2-carboxylate CAS 27455-31-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 6-chloro-4-oxo-4h-chromene-2-carboxylate.

Methyl 6-chloro-4-oxo-4h-chromene-2-carboxylate (CAS 27455-31-8), molecular formula C11H7ClO4 and molecular weight 238.62 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 6-chloro-4-oxo-4h-chromene-2-carboxylate (C11H7ClO4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
