The molecular framework of 3-Methyl-4-(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,5-nonafluoropentyl)cyclopentane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid (C13H13F9O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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.
3-Methyl-4-(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,5-nonafluoropentyl)cyclopentane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 20116-32-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H13F9O4 and a molecular weight of 404.23 g/mol.
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.
