Chemical Structure

Mercury(II) Trifluoroacetate CAS 13257-51-7 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Mercury(II) Trifluoroacetate (CAS 13257-51-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4F6HgO4, MW 426.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C4F6HgO4, Mercury(II) Trifluoroacetate contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 426.62 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Mercury(II) Trifluoroacetate 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.
