Chemical Structure

2,3-Dichloro-5-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoic acid CAS 53552-95-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 289.52 g/mol gives 2,3-Dichloro-5-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2,3-Dichloro-5-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoic acid (CAS 53552-95-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H3Cl3O4S and a molecular weight of 289.52 g/mol.

2,3-Dichloro-5-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoic acid (C7H3Cl3O4S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
