Chemical Structure

3-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid CAS 849353-56-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid 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.

3-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid (CAS 849353-56-6), molecular formula C12H15FO2 and molecular weight 210.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-methylbutanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 210.24 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.

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