Chemical Structure

Methyl (4-fluorobenzyl)glycinate CAS 696588-45-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl (4-fluorobenzyl)glycinate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl (4-fluorobenzyl)glycinate (CAS 696588-45-1), molecular formula C10H12FNO2 and molecular weight 197.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H12FNO2, Methyl (4-fluorobenzyl)glycinate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 197.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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 Methyl (4-fluorobenzyl)glycinate 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.
