4-Hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde CAS 1243395-68-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 190.12 g/mol gives 4-Hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (CAS 1243395-68-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5F3O2 and a molecular weight of 190.12 g/mol.

4-Hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (C8H5F3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde 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.
