Description
CATO supplies 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)propanoic acid (CAS 1378795-51-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H5F3O3, MW 158.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)propanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 158.08 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 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)propanoic acid 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.
