Chemical Structure

1-(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)propan-1-one CAS 575-65-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1-(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)propan-1-one (CAS 575-65-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11FO, MW 166.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)propan-1-one (C10H11FO) is characterized by 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. 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), 1-(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)propan-1-one 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.
