Chemical Structure

2-(4-Ethyl-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid CAS 1249661-13-9 chemical structure

Description

2-(4-Ethyl-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid (CAS 1249661-13-9), molecular formula C10H16F2O3 and molecular weight 222.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2-(4-Ethyl-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.23 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 2-(4-Ethyl-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)-2,2-difluoroacetic 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.
