Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate CAS 39757-34-1 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

CATO supplies Methyl 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate (CAS 39757-34-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9FO4, MW 224.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Methyl 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate (C11H9FO4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 224.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
