3,5-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzaldehyde CAS 59178-12-0 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

3,5-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzaldehyde (CAS 59178-12-0), molecular formula C7H3Cl2NO3 and molecular weight 220.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3,5-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzaldehyde (C7H3Cl2NO3) contains an amide 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,5-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzaldehyde 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.
