Chemical Structure

4-((4-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-3-fluorobenzaldehyde CAS 918524-00-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-((4-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-3-fluorobenzaldehyde (CAS 918524-00-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H10ClFO2, MW 264.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-((4-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-3-fluorobenzaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 264.68 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 4-((4-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-3-fluorobenzaldehyde 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.
