8-(2-Chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid CAS 951891-55-7 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.

8-(2-Chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid (CAS 951891-55-7), molecular formula C14H15ClF2O3 and molecular weight 304.72 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

8-(2-Chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid (C14H15ClF2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 8-(2-Chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-8-oxooctanoic acid 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.
