Chemical Structure

3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid CAS 91427-34-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid.

CATO supplies 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid (CAS 91427-34-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H13ClO2, MW 212.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid (C11H13ClO2) 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.

CATO manufactures 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanoic 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.
