Cyclopentyl(4-fluorophenyl)methanol (CAS 340271-17-2), molecular formula C12H15FO and molecular weight 194.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Cyclopentyl(4-fluorophenyl)methanol (C12H15FO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Cyclopentyl(4-fluorophenyl)methanol 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.
