2-Chlorocyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid CAS 56475-16-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chlorocyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

2-Chlorocyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 56475-16-2), molecular formula C6H7ClO2 and molecular weight 146.57 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-Chlorocyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 146.57 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
