Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzoate CAS 1820734-80-2 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.

Methyl 3-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzoate (CAS 1820734-80-2), molecular formula C15H13FO3 and molecular weight 260.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C15H13FO3, Methyl 3-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 260.26 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures Methyl 3-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzoate 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.
