Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-2-cyano-2-methylpropanoate CAS 1553521-90-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-2-cyano-2-methylpropanoate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-2-cyano-2-methylpropanoate (CAS 1553521-90-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H11ClFNO2 and a molecular weight of 255.67 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-2-cyano-2-methylpropanoate (C12H11ClFNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 255.67 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
