Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid CAS 189298-19-9 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid (CAS 189298-19-9), molecular formula C9H8BrFO2 and molecular weight 247.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid (C9H8BrFO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Bromo-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid 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.
