Chemical Structure

3-Ethoxy-2-fluoro-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoic acid CAS 100701-51-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Ethoxy-2-fluoro-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoic acid (CAS 100701-51-7), molecular formula C6H8FO4 and molecular weight 163.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-Ethoxy-2-fluoro-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoic acid (C6H8FO4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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.

CATO manufactures 3-Ethoxy-2-fluoro-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoic 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.
