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-Methyl-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxirane.
CATO supplies 2-Methyl-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxirane (CAS 178180-81-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9F3O, MW 202.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C10H9F3O, 2-Methyl-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxirane contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 202.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
