Methyl 3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)benzoate CAS 1820641-77-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 248.22 g/mol gives Methyl 3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)benzoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Methyl 3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)benzoate (CAS 1820641-77-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H10F2O2 and a molecular weight of 248.22 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Methyl 3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)benzoate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 248.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3-(2,5-difluorophenyl)benzoate 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.
