Chemical Structure

2-(4-Ethoxy-3,5-difluorophenyl)ethanol CAS 1379309-60-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 202.20 g/mol gives 2-(4-Ethoxy-3,5-difluorophenyl)ethanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(4-Ethoxy-3,5-difluorophenyl)ethanol (CAS 1379309-60-0), molecular formula C10H12F2O2 and molecular weight 202.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(4-Ethoxy-3,5-difluorophenyl)ethanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

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.
