Methyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate CAS 628333-59-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate.

Methyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate (CAS 628333-59-5), molecular formula C9H9FO3 and molecular weight 184.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate (C9H9FO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate 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.
