Chemical Structure

ethyl 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxybutanoate CAS 321942-91-0 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 ethyl 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxybutanoate.

ethyl 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxybutanoate (CAS 321942-91-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H10F2O3 and a molecular weight of 168.14 g/mol.

ethyl 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxybutanoate (C6H10F2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.

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

CATO manufactures ethyl 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxybutanoate 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.
