Chemical Structure

2-(2,4-Dichlorobenzamido)-5-methylbenzoic acid CAS 518021-63-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(2,4-Dichlorobenzamido)-5-methylbenzoic acid (CAS 518021-63-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H11Cl2NO3, MW 324.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(2,4-Dichlorobenzamido)-5-methylbenzoic acid (C15H11Cl2NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 324.16 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
