Chemical Structure

3,5-Dichloro-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid CAS 2787600-78-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3,5-Dichloro-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3,5-Dichloro-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid (CAS 2787600-78-4), molecular formula C7H2Cl2F2O2 and molecular weight 226.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3,5-Dichloro-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid (C7H2Cl2F2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,5-Dichloro-2,6-difluorobenzoic 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.
