Chemical Structure

5-fluoro-7-methoxy-tetralin-1-one CAS 837373-16-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 5-fluoro-7-methoxy-tetralin-1-one (CAS 837373-16-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H17FO2, MW 200.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 5-fluoro-7-methoxy-tetralin-1-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
