Chemical Structure

(S)-1-(2-Fluorophenyl)ethanol CAS 171032-87-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (S)-1-(2-Fluorophenyl)ethanol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(S)-1-(2-Fluorophenyl)ethanol (CAS 171032-87-4), molecular formula C8H9FO and molecular weight 140.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C8H9FO, (S)-1-(2-Fluorophenyl)ethanol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 140.15 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.

CATO manufactures (S)-1-(2-Fluorophenyl)ethanol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
