Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate CAS 132115-73-2 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C9H7FO3, Methyl 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 182.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
