3-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propan-1-one (CAS 116332-53-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H13F3O3 and a molecular weight of 274.24 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 274.24 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-1-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propan-1-one 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.
