Chemical Structure

4-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid CAS 148038-12-4 chemical structure

Description

4-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid (C14H9FO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

4-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid (CAS 148038-12-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H9FO3 and a molecular weight of 244.22 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
