Chemical Structure

6-FLUORO L-DOPA CAS CATO-C3D-262256 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-FLUORO L-DOPA is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 6-FLUORO L-DOPA (CAS CATO-C3D-262256), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H10FNO4, MW 215.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 6-FLUORO L-DOPA is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 215.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures 6-FLUORO L-DOPA under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
