Chemical Structure

2-Ethylfluorobenzene CAS 446-49-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Ethylfluorobenzene is closely related to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Ethylfluorobenzene (CAS 446-49-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9F and a molecular weight of 124.16 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H9F, 2-Ethylfluorobenzene contains fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 124.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Ethylfluorobenzene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
