Chemical Structure

Dimethyl 2,2-dichloropentanedioate CAS 42964-50-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Dimethyl 2,2-dichloropentanedioate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Dimethyl 2,2-dichloropentanedioate (CAS 42964-50-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H10Cl2O4, MW 229.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C7H10Cl2O4, Dimethyl 2,2-dichloropentanedioate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 229.06 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures Dimethyl 2,2-dichloropentanedioate 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.
