Chemical Structure

4,4'-Dichloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid CAS 70994-42-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,4'-Dichloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid.

4,4'-Dichloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 70994-42-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H8Cl2O4 and a molecular weight of 311.12 g/mol.

Structurally, 4,4'-Dichloro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid (C14H8Cl2O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 311.12 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
