Chemical Structure

5-Fluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carboxylic acid CAS 492444-08-3 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

5-Fluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 492444-08-3), molecular formula C8H5FO4 and molecular weight 184.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-Fluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-4-carboxylic acid (C8H5FO4) 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. 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.
