Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzoate CAS 874301-23-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzoate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzoate (CAS 874301-23-2), molecular formula C8H7ClN2O4 and molecular weight 230.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzoate (C8H7ClN2O4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzoate 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.
