Chemical Structure

2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-4-methoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid CAS 356-33-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-4-methoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-4-methoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 356-33-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H4F4O4, MW 204.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-4-methoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid (C5H4F4O4) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, 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.
