Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(2-chlorophenoxy)but-2-enoic acid CAS CATO-C4X-344117 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (E)-3-(2-chlorophenoxy)but-2-enoic acid (CAS CATO-C4X-344117), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9ClO3, MW 212.63 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (E)-3-(2-chlorophenoxy)but-2-enoic acid (C10H9ClO3) 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 (E)-3-(2-chlorophenoxy)but-2-enoic 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.
