Chemical Structure

1-(2-Ethylphenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-one CAS 204439-99-6 chemical structure

Description

1-(2-Ethylphenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-one (CAS 204439-99-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9F3O and a molecular weight of 202.17 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(2-Ethylphenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2-Ethylphenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
