Methyl 2-chloro-5-ethynylbenzoate CAS 792912-10-8 chemical structure

Description

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

Methyl 2-chloro-5-ethynylbenzoate (CAS 792912-10-8), molecular formula C10H7ClO2 and molecular weight 194.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2-chloro-5-ethynylbenzoate (C10H7ClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures Methyl 2-chloro-5-ethynylbenzoate 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.
