Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetate CAS 129409-54-7 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 Ethyl 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetate.

Ethyl 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetate (CAS 129409-54-7), molecular formula C10H10F2O2 and molecular weight 200.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetate (C10H10F2O2) 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 Ethyl 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetate 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.
