Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-((3-chlorophenoxy)methyl)benzoate CAS 438219-07-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 3-((3-chlorophenoxy)methyl)benzoate (CAS 438219-07-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H13ClO3, MW 276.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C15H13ClO3, Methyl 3-((3-chlorophenoxy)methyl)benzoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 276.71 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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 Methyl 3-((3-chlorophenoxy)methyl)benzoate 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.
