Chemical Structure

4-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)benzoic acid CAS 925005-04-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)benzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)benzoic acid (CAS 925005-04-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8Cl2O3, MW 283.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)benzoic acid (C13H8Cl2O3) 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

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.
