Chemical Structure

2-Benzoyl-4,5-dichlorobenzoic acid CAS 33184-58-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Benzoyl-4,5-dichlorobenzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Benzoyl-4,5-dichlorobenzoic acid (CAS 33184-58-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H8Cl2O3, MW 295.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C14H8Cl2O3, 2-Benzoyl-4,5-dichlorobenzoic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 295.12 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
