4-Chloro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid CAS 34113-69-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Chloro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid 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.

CATO supplies 4-Chloro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid (CAS 34113-69-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H5ClO3, MW 172.57 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Chloro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid (C7H5ClO3) 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.

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.
