Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 2-(2-fluoroethoxy)acetate.
Methyl 2-(2-fluoroethoxy)acetate (CAS 149605-54-9), molecular formula C5H9FO3 and molecular weight 136.12 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, Methyl 2-(2-fluoroethoxy)acetate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 136.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
