Chemical Structure

4,4,4-Trifluorobutyric anhydride CAS 1263376-47-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyric anhydride is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyric anhydride (CAS 1263376-47-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H8F6O3, MW 266.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyric anhydride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 266.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyric anhydride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
