Chemical Structure

(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)methanol CAS 63878-73-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)methanol is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)methanol (CAS 63878-73-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H12FNO3, MW 177.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)methanol (C7H12FNO3) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 (2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)methanol 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.
