Chemical Structure

Ethyl 8-(2-chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate CAS 951887-32-4 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ethyl 8-(2-chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate (C16H19ClF2O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

Ethyl 8-(2-chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoate (CAS 951887-32-4), molecular formula C16H19ClF2O3 and molecular weight 332.77 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
