Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-fluoro-2-(thiophen-2-yl)acetate CAS 94744-60-2 chemical structure

Description

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

Ethyl 2-fluoro-2-(thiophen-2-yl)acetate (CAS 94744-60-2), molecular formula C8H9FO2S and molecular weight 188.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-fluoro-2-(thiophen-2-yl)acetate (C8H9FO2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2-fluoro-2-(thiophen-2-yl)acetate 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.
