Chemical Structure

3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzyl thiocyanate CAS 102859-64-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, 3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzyl thiocyanate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 217.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzyl thiocyanate (CAS 102859-64-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6F3NS, MW 217.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
