Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-((2,3-dichlorophenoxy)methyl)furan-2-carboxylate CAS 438222-05-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 301.12 g/mol gives Methyl 5-((2,3-dichlorophenoxy)methyl)furan-2-carboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Methyl 5-((2,3-dichlorophenoxy)methyl)furan-2-carboxylate (CAS 438222-05-0), molecular formula C13H10Cl2O4 and molecular weight 301.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 5-((2,3-dichlorophenoxy)methyl)furan-2-carboxylate (C13H10Cl2O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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.
