Methyl 3,5-Dichloro-4-Hydroxylbenzoate CAS 3337-59-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 3,5-Dichloro-4-Hydroxylbenzoate (CAS 3337-59-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6Cl2O3, MW 221.04 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Methyl 3,5-Dichloro-4-Hydroxylbenzoate (C8H6Cl2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), Methyl 3,5-Dichloro-4-Hydroxylbenzoate 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.
