CATO manufactures 2-{[4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]methyl}tetrahydrofuran 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.
CATO supplies 2-{[4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]methyl}tetrahydrofuran (CAS 1353497-90-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12ClF3O2, MW 280.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-{[4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]methyl}tetrahydrofuran is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 280.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
