Chemical Structure

Benzoic Acid, 2-[(3-chloro-2-methylphenyl)amino]-, methyl ester CAS 31376-49-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Benzoic Acid, 2-[(3-chloro-2-methylphenyl)amino]-, methyl ester (CAS 31376-49-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14ClNO2, MW 275.73 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Benzoic Acid, 2-[(3-chloro-2-methylphenyl)amino]-, methyl ester (C15H14ClNO2) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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.
