3-Fluoro-4-methylphenol CAS 452-78-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 3-Fluoro-4-methylphenol (CAS 452-78-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H7FO, MW 126.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Fluoro-4-methylphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 126.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 3-Fluoro-4-methylphenol 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.
