Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 396.08 g/mol gives 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8-Tetradecafluorooctanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8-Tetradecafluorooctanoic acid (CAS 13973-14-3), molecular formula C8H2F14O2 and molecular weight 396.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8-Tetradecafluorooctanoic acid (C8H2F14O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8-Tetradecafluorooctanoic acid 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.
