Chemical Structure

Ethyl 7-(2,3,4,5-tetrafluorophenyl)-7-oxoheptanoate CAS 951887-44-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 7-(2,3,4,5-tetrafluorophenyl)-7-oxoheptanoate (CAS 951887-44-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H16F4O3, MW 320.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 7-(2,3,4,5-tetrafluorophenyl)-7-oxoheptanoate (C15H16F4O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 320.28 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
