Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate CAS 672931-29-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate (CAS 672931-29-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11FO3, MW 198.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C10H11FO3, Ethyl 2-(2-fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)acetate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 198.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
