Chemical Structure

4-((3-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid CAS 84403-70-3 chemical structure

Description

4-((3-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid (C14H11ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

4-((3-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)benzoic acid (CAS 84403-70-3), molecular formula C14H11ClO3 and molecular weight 262.69 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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