Chemical Structure

(S)-2-amino-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acetic acid CAS 1241682-16-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (S)-2-amino-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acetic 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.

(S)-2-amino-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acetic acid (CAS 1241682-16-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7F2NO2 and a molecular weight of 187.14 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, (S)-2-amino-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 187.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
