Chemical Structure

(4-((Trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)phenyl)methanol CAS 219872-98-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (4-((Trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)phenyl)methanol is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(4-((Trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)phenyl)methanol (CAS 219872-98-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7F3O3S and a molecular weight of 240.20 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (4-((Trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)phenyl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.20 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.
