Chemical Structure

3-(2-Chloro-3-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid CAS 853331-56-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 214.65 g/mol gives 3-(2-Chloro-3-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(2-Chloro-3-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (CAS 853331-56-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11ClO3 and a molecular weight of 214.65 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-(2-Chloro-3-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (C10H11ClO3) 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
