Chemical Structure

3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid CAS 1262010-56-9 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (C14H8F4O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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).

3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (CAS 1262010-56-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H8F4O2 and a molecular weight of 284.21 g/mol.
