Chemical Structure

1-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)naphthalene CAS 123228-02-4 chemical structure

Description

1-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)naphthalene (CAS 123228-02-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H9F3 and a molecular weight of 210.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)naphthalene (C12H9F3) is characterized by fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
