Chemical Structure

2-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylsulfoxide CAS 181180-59-6 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-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylsulfoxide.

2-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylsulfoxide (CAS 181180-59-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7F3OS and a molecular weight of 208.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylsulfoxide (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. 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-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylmethylsulfoxide 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.
