Chemical Structure

2-(4-Fluorobenzylidene)butanoic acid CAS 883824-47-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(4-Fluorobenzylidene)butanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(4-Fluorobenzylidene)butanoic acid (CAS 883824-47-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H11FO2 and a molecular weight of 194.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(4-Fluorobenzylidene)butanoic acid (C11H11FO2) 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 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.

CATO manufactures 2-(4-Fluorobenzylidene)butanoic 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.
