Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-[(2-Chloroacetyl)amino]-3-methylbenzoic Acid Methyl Ester.
2-[(2-Chloroacetyl)amino]-3-methylbenzoic Acid Methyl Ester (CAS 77093-79-9), molecular formula C11H12ClNO3 and molecular weight 241.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 2-[(2-Chloroacetyl)amino]-3-methylbenzoic Acid Methyl Ester (C11H12ClNO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 241.67 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-[(2-Chloroacetyl)amino]-3-methylbenzoic Acid Methyl Ester 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.
