Chemical Structure

3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2-oxopropanoic acid CAS 61676-23-1 chemical structure

Description

3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2-oxopropanoic acid (CAS 61676-23-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H7FO3 and a molecular weight of 182.15 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2-oxopropanoic acid (C9H7FO3) 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.

CATO manufactures 3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2-oxopropanoic acid 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.
