4'-Chloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carboxylicacid (CAS 7079-15-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H9ClO2 and a molecular weight of 232.66 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4'-Chloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carboxylicacid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 232.66 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
