Chemical Structure

(3E)-3-[(3-Fluorophenyl)methylidene]-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-one CAS 207442-39-5 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

CATO supplies (3E)-3-[(3-Fluorophenyl)methylidene]-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-one (CAS 207442-39-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H11FO2, MW 254.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (3E)-3-[(3-Fluorophenyl)methylidene]-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-one (C16H11FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
