Ethyl 4-fluoro-4-methyl-3-oxopentanoate (CAS 227184-06-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H13FO3 and a molecular weight of 176.19 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Ethyl 4-fluoro-4-methyl-3-oxopentanoate (C8H13FO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
