2-Methoxy-4,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (CAS 180134-14-9), molecular formula C10H6F6O2 and molecular weight 272.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2-Methoxy-4,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde (C10H6F6O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring 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. 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.
