Chemical Structure

1-Ethyl-3-fluorobenzene CAS 696-39-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-Ethyl-3-fluorobenzene (CAS 696-39-9), molecular formula C8H9F and molecular weight 124.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-Ethyl-3-fluorobenzene (C8H9F) contains fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
