Chemical Structure

4-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)phenylboronic acid CAS 1402238-31-6 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 4-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)phenylboronic acid.

4-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)phenylboronic acid (CAS 1402238-31-6), molecular formula C7H8BFO4S and molecular weight 218.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 4-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)phenylboronic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 218.01 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).

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.
