Chemical Structure

(3-Chlorophenyl)(3,4-difluorophenyl)methanone CAS 844884-94-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3-Chlorophenyl)(3,4-difluorophenyl)methanone is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3-Chlorophenyl)(3,4-difluorophenyl)methanone (CAS 844884-94-2), molecular formula C13H7ClF2O and molecular weight 252.64 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (3-Chlorophenyl)(3,4-difluorophenyl)methanone (C13H7ClF2O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures (3-Chlorophenyl)(3,4-difluorophenyl)methanone 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.
