Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)propanoate CAS 1443303-84-1 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 Ethyl 3-(2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)propanoate (CAS 1443303-84-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12ClF3O3, MW 296.67 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, Ethyl 3-(2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)propanoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
