Chemical Structure

2-Ethyl-4,4-difluorobutanoic acid CAS 1511599-27-1 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 2-Ethyl-4,4-difluorobutanoic acid.

2-Ethyl-4,4-difluorobutanoic acid (CAS 1511599-27-1), molecular formula C6H10F2O2 and molecular weight 152.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H10F2O2, 2-Ethyl-4,4-difluorobutanoic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 152.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Ethyl-4,4-difluorobutanoic 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.
