2-Amino-4-chlorobenzamide (CAS 5900-59-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H7ClN2O and a molecular weight of 170.60 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C7H7ClN2O, 2-Amino-4-chlorobenzamide contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 170.60 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
CATO manufactures 2-Amino-4-chlorobenzamide 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.
