Chemical Structure

(2-Fluorobiphenyl-5-yl)methanol CAS 89951-76-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (2-Fluorobiphenyl-5-yl)methanol is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

(2-Fluorobiphenyl-5-yl)methanol (CAS 89951-76-8), molecular formula C13H11FO and molecular weight 202.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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