Chemical Structure

4-(2,6-Difluorophenyl)butan-2-one CAS 918540-56-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(2,6-Difluorophenyl)butan-2-one is closely related to 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 4-(2,6-Difluorophenyl)butan-2-one (CAS 918540-56-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H10F2O, MW 184.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(2,6-Difluorophenyl)butan-2-one (C10H10F2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
