Chemical Structure

Ethyl (2E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoate CAS 371-24-4 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 Ethyl (2E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoate.

CATO supplies Ethyl (2E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoate (CAS 371-24-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H9FO2, MW 132.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Ethyl (2E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoate (C6H9FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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. 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 Ethyl (2E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoate 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.
