Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-Cyano-4-(2-fluorophenyl)butyrate CAS 2006278-14-2 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 4-Cyano-4-(2-fluorophenyl)butyrate (CAS 2006278-14-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12FNO2 and a molecular weight of 221.23 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H12FNO2, Methyl 4-Cyano-4-(2-fluorophenyl)butyrate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 221.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures Methyl 4-Cyano-4-(2-fluorophenyl)butyrate 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.
