Methyl 2-[4-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)phenyl]acetate CAS 1820734-68-6

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2-[4-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)phenyl]acetate 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 2-[4-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)phenyl]acetate (CAS 1820734-68-6), molecular formula C16H15FO2 and molecular weight 258.29 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, a polycyclic aromatic system, Methyl 2-[4-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)phenyl]acetate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 258.29 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.
