Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzoate CAS 773134-93-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzoate (CAS 773134-93-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H8F4O2, MW 236.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzoate (C10H8F4O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

CATO manufactures Ethyl 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzoate 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.
