Chemical Structure

3-[(2-fluorophenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde CAS 423724-45-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 230.23 g/mol gives 3-[(2-fluorophenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-[(2-fluorophenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde (CAS 423724-45-2), molecular formula C14H11FO2 and molecular weight 230.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-[(2-fluorophenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde (C14H11FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 3-[(2-fluorophenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde 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.
