Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 206.59 g/mol gives (2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-en-1-yl)benzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
(2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-en-1-yl)benzene (CAS 104696-00-6), molecular formula C9H6ClF3 and molecular weight 206.59 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-en-1-yl)benzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 206.59 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-en-1-yl)benzene 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.
