Chemical Structure

ethyl (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) oxalate CAS 1269151-38-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of ethyl (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) oxalate 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.

ethyl (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) oxalate (CAS 1269151-38-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H7F3O4 and a molecular weight of 200.11 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, ethyl (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) oxalate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.11 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), ethyl (2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) oxalate 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.
