Chemical Structure

2,4,5-Trichlorophenyl formate CAS 33104-36-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2,4,5-Trichlorophenyl formate (C6H3Cl3OCH2O2) 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 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.

2,4,5-Trichlorophenyl formate (CAS 33104-36-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3Cl3OCH2O2 and a molecular weight of 243.46 g/mol.

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), 2,4,5-Trichlorophenyl formate 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.
