CATO supplies (4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)methanethiol (CAS 175278-03-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7F3OS, MW 208.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of (4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)methanethiol (C8H7F3OS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
