Chemical Structure

2,6-Dichloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid CAS 75177-59-2 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 2,6-Dichloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid.

2,6-Dichloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid (CAS 75177-59-2), molecular formula C9H8Cl2O4 and molecular weight 251.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2,6-Dichloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid (C9H8Cl2O4) contains 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
