Chemical Structure

8-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid CAS 951889-65-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 8-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid (CAS 951889-65-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H16ClFO3, MW 286.73 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 8-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.73 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
