Chemical Structure
Description
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.
Mcpa-Sodium (CAS 3653-48-3), molecular formula C9H8ClO3Na and molecular weight 222.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a salt form, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Mcpa-Sodium is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.60 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Mcpa-Sodium 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.
