Chemical Structure

1-(3-Fluoro-4-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)phenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 885949-77-9 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1-(3-Fluoro-4-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)phenyl)ethan-1-one (C16H15FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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.

1-(3-Fluoro-4-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)phenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 885949-77-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H15FO2 and a molecular weight of 258.29 g/mol.

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