2-[2-(4-Difluoromethoxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylsulfanyl]-benzoic acid CAS 721406-30-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-[2-(4-Difluoromethoxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylsulfanyl]-benzoic acid.

2-[2-(4-Difluoromethoxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylsulfanyl]-benzoic acid (CAS 721406-30-0), molecular formula C16H12F2O4S and molecular weight 338.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-[2-(4-Difluoromethoxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylsulfanyl]-benzoic acid (C16H12F2O4S) contains a flavonoid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 2-[2-(4-Difluoromethoxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylsulfanyl]-benzoic acid 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.
