Chemical Structure

2,2-Difluoroethyl Acetate CAS 1550-44-3 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 2,2-Difluoroethyl Acetate.

CATO supplies 2,2-Difluoroethyl Acetate (CAS 1550-44-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6F2O2, MW 124.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2,2-Difluoroethyl Acetate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 124.09 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.

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), 2,2-Difluoroethyl Acetate 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.
