Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid CAS 792952-51-3 chemical structure

Description

2-Chloro-4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid (CAS 792952-51-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H4ClNO5 and a molecular weight of 217.56 g/mol.

2-Chloro-4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid (C7H4ClNO5) 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. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Chloro-4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid 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.
