Chemical Structure

4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzenesulfonyl Chloride CAS 7079-48-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzenesulfonyl Chloride is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzenesulfonyl Chloride (CAS 7079-48-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6ClFO2S, MW 208.64 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzenesulfonyl Chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.64 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzenesulfonyl Chloride 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.
