The occurrence of 2-FLuoro-3'-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-FLuoro-3'-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (CAS 1261872-12-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H10F4O2 and a molecular weight of 298.23 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-FLuoro-3'-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.23 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.
