Chemical Structure

2-(3,5-Dichlorophenoxy)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid CAS 1153780-39-2 chemical structure

Description

2-(3,5-Dichlorophenoxy)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid (CAS 1153780-39-2), molecular formula C8H4Cl2F2O3 and molecular weight 257.02 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(3,5-Dichlorophenoxy)-2,2-difluoroacetic acid (C8H4Cl2F2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 257.02 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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-(3,5-Dichlorophenoxy)-2,2-difluoroacetic 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.
