Chemical Structure

2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethanone CAS 126866-16-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 248.68 g/mol gives 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethanone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethanone (CAS 126866-16-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H10ClFO, MW 248.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethanone (C14H10ClFO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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.
