1-Ethoxy-3,4-difluoro-2-methoxybenzene (CAS 2379321-67-0), molecular formula C9H10F2O2 and molecular weight 188.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 1-Ethoxy-3,4-difluoro-2-methoxybenzene (C9H10F2O2) 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Ethoxy-3,4-difluoro-2-methoxybenzene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
