Chemical Structure

1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-methoxy-2-methylbenzene CAS 1261584-84-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-methoxy-2-methylbenzene.

1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-methoxy-2-methylbenzene (CAS 1261584-84-2), molecular formula C9H10F2O2 and molecular weight 188.17 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, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-4-methoxy-2-methylbenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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