Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid CAS 157518-45-1 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 (E)-3-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid.

(E)-3-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid (CAS 157518-45-1), molecular formula C10H9FO3 and molecular weight 196.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (E)-3-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid (C10H9FO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), (E)-3-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)acrylic 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.
