Chemical Structure

3-(Difluoromethyl)-4-fluorobenzoic acid CAS 1781570-25-9 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Difluoromethyl)-4-fluorobenzoic 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.

3-(Difluoromethyl)-4-fluorobenzoic acid (CAS 1781570-25-9), molecular formula C8H5F3O2 and molecular weight 190.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-(Difluoromethyl)-4-fluorobenzoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.12 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.
