Chemical Structure

4-Benzyloxy-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid methyl ester CAS 1993479-31-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 278.25 g/mol gives 4-Benzyloxy-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid methyl ester distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Benzyloxy-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid methyl ester (CAS 1993479-31-4), molecular formula C15H12F2O3 and molecular weight 278.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Benzyloxy-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid methyl ester (C15H12F2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 278.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Benzyloxy-2,6-difluorobenzoic acid methyl ester meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
