Chemical Structure

(1H,1H-Perfluorooctyl)oxirane CAS 20084-49-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (1H,1H-Perfluorooctyl)oxirane is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (1H,1H-Perfluorooctyl)oxirane (CAS 20084-49-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H5F15O, MW 426.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(1H,1H-Perfluorooctyl)oxirane (C10H5F15O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
