1-(4-Chloro-3-fluorophenyl)ethan-1-amine (CAS 787633-87-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9ClFN and a molecular weight of 173.62 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 1-(4-Chloro-3-fluorophenyl)ethan-1-amine (C8H9ClFN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
