Chemical Structure

(3-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)methanol CAS 959040-38-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of (3-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)methanol (C14H13FO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies (3-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)methanol (CAS 959040-38-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H13FO2, MW 232.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), (3-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)methanol 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.
