Chemical Structure

2-((2-Fluorobenzyl)oxy)-3-methoxybenzaldehyde CAS 588687-34-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-((2-Fluorobenzyl)oxy)-3-methoxybenzaldehyde 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.

2-((2-Fluorobenzyl)oxy)-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (CAS 588687-34-7), molecular formula C15H13FO3 and molecular weight 260.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-((2-Fluorobenzyl)oxy)-3-methoxybenzaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 260.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
