Chemical Structure

9-(Trifluoromethyl)anthracene CAS 120568-02-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 9-(Trifluoromethyl)anthracene (C15H9F3) is characterized by fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

9-(Trifluoromethyl)anthracene (CAS 120568-02-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H9F3 and a molecular weight of 246.23 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 9-(Trifluoromethyl)anthracene 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.
