Chemical Structure

2-Fluoro-4-(furan-2-yl)benzoic acid CAS 1262004-78-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Fluoro-4-(furan-2-yl)benzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Fluoro-4-(furan-2-yl)benzoic acid (CAS 1262004-78-3), molecular formula C11H7FO3 and molecular weight 206.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Fluoro-4-(furan-2-yl)benzoic acid (C11H7FO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
