Chemical Structure

2-((2,6-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid CAS 360778-49-0 chemical structure

Description

2-((2,6-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid (CAS 360778-49-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H10Cl2O3 and a molecular weight of 297.13 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-((2,6-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid (C14H10Cl2O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. 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. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-((2,6-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
