Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2,3-difluoro-4-(methylthio)benzoate CAS 2116940-92-0 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 2,3-difluoro-4-(methylthio)benzoate.

Ethyl 2,3-difluoro-4-(methylthio)benzoate (CAS 2116940-92-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10F2O2S and a molecular weight of 232.25 g/mol.

Ethyl 2,3-difluoro-4-(methylthio)benzoate (C10H10F2O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 2,3-difluoro-4-(methylthio)benzoate 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.
