Ethyl 4-fluoro-1-naphthoylformate CAS 409081-83-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 4-fluoro-1-naphthoylformate (CAS 409081-83-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H11FO3, MW 246.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C14H11FO3, Ethyl 4-fluoro-1-naphthoylformate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 246.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 4-fluoro-1-naphthoylformate 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.
