Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Chloro-6-fluoro-3-methylanisole.
2-Chloro-6-fluoro-3-methylanisole (CAS 261762-79-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8ClFO and a molecular weight of 174.60 g/mol.
2-Chloro-6-fluoro-3-methylanisole (C8H8ClFO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; 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.
