The occurrence of 1,2-Difluoro-3-(methoxymethoxy)benzene is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 1,2-Difluoro-3-(methoxymethoxy)benzene (CAS 749230-18-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H8F2O2, MW 174.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 1,2-Difluoro-3-(methoxymethoxy)benzene (C8H8F2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 174.14 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
