Chemical Structure

1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanone CAS 121194-36-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanone is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanone (CAS 121194-36-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H6ClF3O and a molecular weight of 222.59 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.59 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.
