Chemical Structure

(R)-2-Chloro-2-fluoroacetic acid CAS 25197-76-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 112.49 g/mol gives (R)-2-Chloro-2-fluoroacetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies (R)-2-Chloro-2-fluoroacetic acid (CAS 25197-76-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C2H2ClFO2, MW 112.49 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(R)-2-Chloro-2-fluoroacetic acid (C2H2ClFO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), (R)-2-Chloro-2-fluoroacetic acid 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.
