Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetate CAS 34837-84-8 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 Methyl 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetate.

Methyl 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetate (CAS 34837-84-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9FO2 and a molecular weight of 168.16 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetate (C9H9FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 Methyl 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetate 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.
