Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate CAS 220239-71-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Methyl 2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate (CAS 220239-71-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6F2O3, MW 200.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-2-oxoacetate (C9H6F2O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
