Chemical Structure

2-Oxo-2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetaldehyde CAS 1736-56-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Oxo-2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetaldehyde.

2-Oxo-2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetaldehyde (CAS 1736-56-7), molecular formula C9H5F3O2 and molecular weight 202.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Oxo-2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetaldehyde (C9H5F3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 2-Oxo-2-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetaldehyde 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.
