Chemical Structure

2-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid CAS 7649-92-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid (CAS 7649-92-5), molecular formula C14H9FO3 and molecular weight 244.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)benzoic acid (C14H9FO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 244.22 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)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.
