Description

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.

(Chloroformyl)acetic Acid Methyl Ester 3-Chloro-3-oxopropionic Acid Methyl Ester 37517-81-0 M2315 Methyl (Chloroformyl)acetate Methyl 3-Chloro-3-oxopropionate Methyl Malonyl Chloride (CAS 37517-81-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H5ClO3 and a molecular weight of 136.53 g/mol.

(Chloroformyl)acetic Acid Methyl Ester 3-Chloro-3-oxopropionic Acid Methyl Ester 37517-81-0 M2315 Methyl (Chloroformyl)acetate Methyl 3-Chloro-3-oxopropionate Methyl Malonyl Chloride (C4H5ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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.
