Chemical Structure

ethyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxy-propanoate CAS 1993-92-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including ethyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxy-propanoate.

CATO supplies ethyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxy-propanoate (CAS 1993-92-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H9FO3, MW 136.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

ethyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxy-propanoate (C5H9FO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, 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 ethyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxy-propanoate 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.
