Chemical Structure

3,4-Dichlorobenzoic anhydride CAS 86866-14-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,4-Dichlorobenzoic anhydride 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.

CATO supplies 3,4-Dichlorobenzoic anhydride (CAS 86866-14-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H6Cl4O3, MW 364.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

3,4-Dichlorobenzoic anhydride (C14H6Cl4O3) 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.

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.
