Chemical Structure

3,3-Bis(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid CAS 342-75-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 262.25 g/mol gives 3,3-Bis(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3,3-Bis(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid (CAS 342-75-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H12F2O2 and a molecular weight of 262.25 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 3,3-Bis(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 262.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 3,3-Bis(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid 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.
