CATO supplies 1-Fluoro-3-methoxy-2-propanol (CAS 40453-80-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H9FO2, MW 108.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
1-Fluoro-3-methoxy-2-propanol (C4H9FO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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.
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.
