Chemical Structure

4-(4-Chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde CAS 1518092-44-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(4-Chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(4-Chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (CAS 1518092-44-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H8ClF3O2 and a molecular weight of 300.66 g/mol.

Structurally, 4-(4-Chlorophenoxy)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (C14H8ClF3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 300.66 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
