Chemical Structure

2-Amino-3,5-dichlorobenzoic Acid CAS 2789-92-6 chemical structure

Description

2-Amino-3,5-dichlorobenzoic Acid (CAS 2789-92-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H5Cl2NO2 and a molecular weight of 206.03 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Amino-3,5-dichlorobenzoic Acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 206.03 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Amino-3,5-dichlorobenzoic 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.
