Chemical Structure

Butyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropanecarboxylate CAS 260352-79-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Butyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropanecarboxylate.

Butyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropanecarboxylate (CAS 260352-79-2), molecular formula C8H12F2O2 and molecular weight 178.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Butyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropanecarboxylate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 178.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Butyl 2,2-Difluorocyclopropanecarboxylate 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.
