Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate CAS 1443322-99-3 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Methyl 4-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate (C11H10ClFO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 244.65 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies Methyl 4-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate (CAS 1443322-99-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H10ClFO3, MW 244.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
