Chemical Structure

6-Fluoro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one CAS 174603-42-0 chemical structure

Description

6-Fluoro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one (CAS 174603-42-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9FO and a molecular weight of 164.18 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Fluoro-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 164.18 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.

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.
