Chemical Structure

2-(1,1-Difluoroethyl)naphthalene CAS 1204296-00-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-(1,1-Difluoroethyl)naphthalene (CAS 1204296-00-3), molecular formula C12H10F2 and molecular weight 192.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(1,1-Difluoroethyl)naphthalene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 192.20 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.

CATO manufactures 2-(1,1-Difluoroethyl)naphthalene 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.
