Chemical Structure

2-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid CAS 91658-92-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic 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.

CATO supplies 2-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid (CAS 91658-92-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H5FO3, MW 156.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid (C7H5FO3) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic Acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
