Description

2-chloropropanedioic acid dimethyl ester 28868-76-0 A819643 dimethyl 2-chloranylpropanedioate (CAS 28868-76-0), molecular formula C5H7ClO4 and molecular weight 166.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-chloropropanedioic acid dimethyl ester 28868-76-0 A819643 dimethyl 2-chloranylpropanedioate (C5H7ClO4) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional 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.

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-chloropropanedioic acid dimethyl ester 28868-76-0 A819643 dimethyl 2-chloranylpropanedioate 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.
