2-(3-Fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetic acid CAS 455-72-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(3-Fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetic acid.

2-(3-Fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetic acid (CAS 455-72-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H7FO4 and a molecular weight of 198.15 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(3-Fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetic acid (C9H7FO4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3-Fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetic acid 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.
