Chemical Structure

2’-Fluorobiphenyl-4-carboxylic Acid CAS 365-12-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 216.21 g/mol gives 2’-Fluorobiphenyl-4-carboxylic Acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2’-Fluorobiphenyl-4-carboxylic Acid (CAS 365-12-8), molecular formula C13H9FO2 and molecular weight 216.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2’-Fluorobiphenyl-4-carboxylic Acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 216.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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’-Fluorobiphenyl-4-carboxylic 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.
