Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate CAS 502424-52-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate 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.

tert-Butyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (CAS 502424-52-4), molecular formula C13H15FO3 and molecular weight 238.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of tert-Butyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (C13H15FO3) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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