Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-[4-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate CAS 1820607-27-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-[4-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 3-[4-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate (CAS 1820607-27-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H10F4O2 and a molecular weight of 298.23 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Methyl 3-[4-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.23 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.
