Chemical Structure

Ethyl 8-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate CAS 898792-76-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Ethyl 8-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate 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.

Ethyl 8-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate (CAS 898792-76-2), molecular formula C16H21FO3 and molecular weight 280.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C16H21FO3, Ethyl 8-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 280.33 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
