Chemical Structure

4-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxobutanoic acid CAS 1993324-06-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 1993324-06-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9FO3 and a molecular weight of 196.18 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxobutanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 196.18 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.

CATO manufactures 4-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxobutanoic 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.
