The occurrence of (S)-1-(2,4,6-Trifluorophenyl)ethan-1-ol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(S)-1-(2,4,6-Trifluorophenyl)ethan-1-ol (CAS 1568193-05-4), molecular formula C8H7F3O and molecular weight 176.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (S)-1-(2,4,6-Trifluorophenyl)ethan-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 176.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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 (S)-1-(2,4,6-Trifluorophenyl)ethan-1-ol 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.
