5-(Difluoromethyl)-2-methylbenzaldehyde CAS 1783358-63-3 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 5-(Difluoromethyl)-2-methylbenzaldehyde (CAS 1783358-63-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8F2O, MW 170.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

5-(Difluoromethyl)-2-methylbenzaldehyde (C9H8F2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures 5-(Difluoromethyl)-2-methylbenzaldehyde 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.
