Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate CAS 177734-87-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 3-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate (CAS 177734-87-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H10F6O2 and a molecular weight of 348.24 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 3-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate (C16H10F6O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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), Methyl 3-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate 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.
