Chemical Structure

1-(Difluorophenylmethyl)-2-fluorobenzene CAS 1204295-58-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(Difluorophenylmethyl)-2-fluorobenzene is closely related to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-(Difluorophenylmethyl)-2-fluorobenzene (CAS 1204295-58-8), molecular formula C13H9F3 and molecular weight 222.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Difluorophenylmethyl)-2-fluorobenzene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 1-(Difluorophenylmethyl)-2-fluorobenzene 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.
