Chemical Structure
Description
4-(3-Fluorophenyl)-3-methylbenzoic acid (CAS 1008773-96-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H11FO2 and a molecular weight of 230.23 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-(3-Fluorophenyl)-3-methylbenzoic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(3-Fluorophenyl)-3-methylbenzoic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
