Chemical Structure

(3-Fluoro-4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)(phenyl)methanol CAS 1248360-54-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (3-Fluoro-4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)(phenyl)methanol 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.

(3-Fluoro-4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)(phenyl)methanol (CAS 1248360-54-4), molecular formula C12H11FO2S and molecular weight 238.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (3-Fluoro-4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)(phenyl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 238.28 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
