Chemical Structure

Sodium chloroacetate CAS 3926-62-3 chemical structure

Description

Sodium chloroacetate (CAS 3926-62-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H2ClO2Na and a molecular weight of 116.48 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Sodium chloroacetate (C2H2ClO2Na) is characterized by a salt form, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Sodium chloroacetate 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.
