Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)acetate CAS 174561-03-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)acetate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)acetate (CAS 174561-03-6), molecular formula C15H20FNO2 and molecular weight 265.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 265.32 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.

CATO manufactures Methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)acetate 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.
