Chemical Structure

3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6'-octafluoro[1,1'-biphenyl]-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid CAS 16583-10-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6'-octafluoro[1,1'-biphenyl]-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 16583-10-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H2F8O4, MW 386.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6'-octafluoro[1,1'-biphenyl]-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 386.15 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6'-octafluoro[1,1'-biphenyl]-2,2'-dicarboxylic 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.
