Chemical Structure

2,6-Difluorocinnamic Acid, Predominantly trans CAS 152152-09-5 chemical structure

Description

2,6-Difluorocinnamic Acid, Predominantly trans (C9H6F2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2,6-Difluorocinnamic Acid, Predominantly trans (CAS 152152-09-5), molecular formula C9H6F2O2 and molecular weight 184.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
