Chemical Structure

2-Fluorobutane CAS 359-01-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Fluorobutane is closely related to fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Fluorobutane (CAS 359-01-3), molecular formula C4H9F and molecular weight 76.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C4H9F, 2-Fluorobutane contains fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 76.11 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 2-Fluorobutane 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.
