Chemical Structure

4-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluoro-5-methylbenzoic acid CAS 2624417-80-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluoro-5-methylbenzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluoro-5-methylbenzoic acid (CAS 2624417-80-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H13FO3, MW 260.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluoro-5-methylbenzoic acid (C15H13FO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
