Chemical Structure

4-Nitrophenyl chloroformate CAS 7693-46-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Nitrophenyl chloroformate is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Nitrophenyl chloroformate (CAS 7693-46-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H4ClNO4 and a molecular weight of 201.56 g/mol.

4-Nitrophenyl chloroformate (C7H4ClNO4) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

CATO manufactures 4-Nitrophenyl chloroformate 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.
