Chemical Structure

2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid CAS 920501-67-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 200.18 g/mol gives 2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid (CAS 920501-67-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H10F2O2, MW 200.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
