Chemical Structure

Methyl (E)-3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)acrylate CAS 1007862-01-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Methyl (E)-3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)acrylate (C10H8F2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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.

CATO supplies Methyl (E)-3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)acrylate (CAS 1007862-01-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H8F2O2, MW 198.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
