Chemical Structure

4,4-Difluorobutanal CAS 1785532-42-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4,4-Difluorobutanal is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4,4-Difluorobutanal (CAS 1785532-42-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6F2O, MW 108.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4,4-Difluorobutanal (C4H6F2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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.

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.

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.
