3,5-Difluoro-2-methoxybenzoic acid CAS 886498-75-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3,5-Difluoro-2-methoxybenzoic 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-Difluoro-2-methoxybenzoic acid (CAS 886498-75-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6F2O3 and a molecular weight of 188.13 g/mol.

3,5-Difluoro-2-methoxybenzoic acid (C8H6F2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
