Description
Chloroacetic acid is a halogenated carboxylic acid supplied at a minimum purity of 99,5 % (p.a.), with CAS number 79-11-8 and empirical formula C₂H₃ClO₂. Its molar mass is 94,5 g/mol and the density is 1,64 g/cm³; the boiling point is 190 °C and the flash point is 126 °C. is suitable for organic synthesis, carboxymethylation chemistry and analytical laboratory use requiring a defined chloroacetic acid grade. Key physicochemical parameters from manufacturer Carl ROTH support accurate weighing, reaction planning and inventory control. The product is identified by EG nr. 201-178-4 and UN number 1751. Chloroacetic acid of p.a. quality is selected in research and industrial laboratories whenever a high-purity monochloroacetic acid is needed for preparative steps, intermediate formation and general chemical applications consistent with the published specifications.
This article belongs on Acids, in Acids & bases.

Questions about Chloroacetic acid, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 100 g, plastic
What is this article?
Chloroacetic acid, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 100 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Produits chimiques de laboratoire et industriels.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
