Chemical Structure

4-Ethynyl-2,5-difluorobenzoic acid CAS 2490398-41-7 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4-Ethynyl-2,5-difluorobenzoic acid (CAS 2490398-41-7), molecular formula C9H4F2O2 and molecular weight 182.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Ethynyl-2,5-difluorobenzoic acid (C9H4F2O2) 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 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).

CATO manufactures 4-Ethynyl-2,5-difluorobenzoic acid 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.
